Steve Wood Tribute to Brad Felt

Steve has recorded with a number of the region’s top players and bands, including Scott Gwinnell, Bill Heid, Brad Felt, Don Mayberry, Ron English, Ed Nuccilli, and the Toledo Jazz Orchestra. Steve has performed with a veritable who’s who of stars in jazz and musical theater, including Robert Goulet, Sammy Davis Jr., Jack Jones, Aretha Franklin, the Four Tops, and the Temptations. In recent years he has worked with a number of major jazz artists at the Detroit International Jazz Festival, including Kenny Burrell, John Faddis, John Clayton, and Mose Allison.

This performance is in tribute to his musical partner for decades, the late Brad Felt, a world class tuba player and composer. Mr. Felt was a veteran of multiple overseas tours including two stints with Howard Johnson’s Gravity.  He received two fellowships from The National Endowment For The Arts for composition/ performance and one from The Michigan Council For The Arts. He and Steve co-led a band around Detroit for many years.
