Bryan Carter Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

With a confidence reflecting an instrumental and compositional maturity that both belie his age and affirm the presence of a remarkable talent, GRAMMY and Tony Award-winner Bryan Carter has established an immensely successful and multi-faceted career as a drummer, vocalist, composer, arranger, orchestrator and bandleader. Shortly after completing his training at The Juilliard School, Carter has already played with legendary artists including McCoy Tyner, Wynton Marsalis, Marcus Roberts, Kenny Barron, Michael Feinstein and Kurt Elling. In addition to working in the worlds of film, television and Broadway, Bryan founded "Jazz at Pride" a non-profit organization dedicated to curating performances and educational engagements that feature world-class artists from the LGBTQIA+ community. Bryan served as the drummer for NBC’s “Maya & Marty”, the classic television program “Sesame Street” and most recently appeared as a guest with The 8G Band for NBC's "Late Night With Seth Meyers". Bryan most recently contributed additional orchestrations to the Tony Award-Winning Best Musical "A Strange Loop" and served as co-orchestrator for Broadway's “Some Like It Hot”—a new musical comedy, based on the classic MGM film, with music and lyrics by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman. Along with his co-orchestrator Charlie Rosen, Tony Award-winners Carter and Rosen made history as the first orchestrators to sweep all three major awards in a single season: 76th Annual Tony Awards (Best Orchestrations), Outer Critics Circle Awards (Outstanding Orchestrations) and the Drama Desk Awards. (Outstanding Orchestrations) In March 2024, Bryan will premiere his new orchestral work, "Rustin in Renaissance", at Jazz at Lincoln Center. The oratorio chronicles the life and times of Bayard Rustin: an unsung American hero at the forefront of the fight for civil rights, gay rights and economic justice. Bryan’s new album, “I Believe”, is available via Bandstand Presents and La Reserve Records.
