John Lind: Jazz Musician in New York

About John Lind

John Lind is a New York City jazz artist heard regularly at Ornithology Jazz Club. He has shared bandstands with Todd Herbert, Jeremy Manasia, Jason Clotter, Larry Banks, Anthony Pearlman, Brent Lerman, Jules Gardener, and Charlie Lincoln, moving through the city’s small‑room circuit where ensembles are built on trust and quick listening. His work favors clean lines and practical swing over spectacle. In quartet settings, he tends to leave space for piano and rhythm sections to shape the narrative in real time.
