Leo Genovese: Jazz Musician in New York

About Leo Genovese

Leo Genovese is an Argentine pianist, keyboardist, and composer whose work sits between jazz tradition, free improvisation, and Latin and Afro-Cuban currents. In New York City he appears in small-room settings such as Bar Bayeux, often as a collaborator within larger ensembles. He has performed with artists including Marwan Allam, the Bab Bhar Project, Kyle Nasser, Kenny Warren, and Samvel Sarkisyan, and has also worked in rock-adjacent contexts with The Mars Volta. His playing favors velocity and harmonic risk over polish.
