    About Full big band

    Full big band is a large-ensemble jazz group heard in New York City concert settings, including appearances at Jazz at Lincoln Center. The ensemble has been featured in projects with drummer Ulysses Owens Jr. and bassist Michael Olatuja, including programs tracing rhythmic and stylistic links from Afrobeat toward contemporary Afrobeats. Its work centers on disciplined section playing and clear orchestration, with room for solo voices to emerge. Performances favor structure and groove over spectacle.
