NYC-based pianist Grant Richards is an award-winning performer, composer, and educator able to adapt to a wide range of settings, styles, and genres. A native of Portland, Oregon, Grant began his studies at an early age and was able to thrive in a vibrant and supportive musical atmosphere, aided especially by the guidance of his teachers Eldon Richards, Randy Porter, Gordon Lee, and Thara Memory.
At the age of fourteen, Grant produced and recorded his first album as a leader, comprised entirely of his own pieces and arrangements. Before entering college, Downbeat Magazine honored him with four prestigious Student Music Awards, including Best Solo Instrumentalist (’04), Best Jazz Arrangement (’05/’06), and Best High School Ensemble (’07).
