Now based in New York City, he returns to LA on Sunday for a performance at Catalina\u2019s with his extraordinary quartet featuring vocalist Becca Stevens, bassist Rueben Rogers and drummer Kendrick Scott. He\u2019ll be focusing on music from last year\u2019s Concord Jazz release \u201cDaylight at Midnight.\u201d While always responding to jazz\u2019s improvisational imperative, the 26-year-old Eigsti has found inspiration in contemporary pop songs by artists such as Elliott Smith, Bjork, Coldplay, and Nick Drake, essentially building on a jazz tradition that dates back to Louis Armstrong\u2019s stunning reinvention of Tin Pan Alley tunes in the 1920s.","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/curatingla.com\/cla\/legacy-images\/organizations\/CatalinaJazzClublogo.jpg"}
