About

" [Krantz] developed an approach to improvisation that united the nuance of contemporary jazz with the f**k-you attitude of rock’n’roll." - Irish Times

Wayne Krantz’s singular and frequently visionary playing has made him one of New York City’s most highly respected and sought-after guitarists, resulting in performing and recording gigs with a host of luminaries such as Steely Dan, Victor Bailey, Michael Brecker, Carla Bley, Billy Cobham, and Chris Potter.
