N-Motion Entertainment Presents ~ Jazz Intervention ~ SATURDAY | NOV. 21, 2015 | 7PM Featuring Special Guest MARION MEADOWS @ Hill House Kaufmann Center
Marion was born in West Virginia and grew up in Stamford, Connecticut. He began playing the clarinet and studying classical music at the age of nine. After studying jazz at Rippowam High School in Stamford, CT with Anthony Truglia, Meadows attended Berklee College of Music. Marion first hit the airwaves in 1991 with "For Lovers Only", but his career really began one day in the late '80s at New York's Grand Central Station. Meadows hooked up with numerous artists and musicians and became a well known sideman in his own right, recording or performing over the years with Bob James, Brook Benton, Eartha Kitt, Norman Connors, Phyllis Hyman, Jean Carne, The Temptations, Michael Bolton, Angela Bofill, Will Downing , Bob Baldwin, Chuck Loeb, John Lee, among many others. In the late '80s, Meadows stretched his boundaries by becoming a member of a New York avant-garde band called the Aboriginal Music Society. In 1990 Meadows submitted a solo project to Steve Backer at Novus/RCA and was signed to a recording contract, thus marking the beginning of his solo career.
