About
D.S. Wilson is an American jazz musician, composer, producer and performer currently living in Chicago. Wilson’s sound primarily features the saxophone and blurs the lines between jazz, funk, rock, pop and blues, with smooth and memorable sax melodies on top of funky drum & bass rhythms and tasteful guitars and keyboards. Listening to Wilson’s music, one can hear influences from the likes of David Sanborn, Dave Koz, Gerald Albright, Steely Dan and Dave Matthews.
“Bright energies and a bold drive promise to captivate those adventurous fans of Jazz and Funk flavorings, with skillful performances…serving to pique listener interests towards all current and future works from the creative mind of D.S. Wilson” says Jon W of RadioAirplay.com.
Having just completed his second album “Saxuality”, Wilson is supporting the May 2021 album release with regional performances, while already beginning work on a third album. Several advance singles from the “Saxuality” album have been picked up by multiple notable Spotify playlists such as the “New Jazz” playlist by curator Mariano Lorenzo who said “Excellent track, with great handling of the speed and power of the track. With quality and feeling but with power and rhythm. The saxophone is the most outstanding but perfectly accompanied by the rest. Clearly it does not have a single musical style but it is a great fusion of many.”
