Sketch of the Day #9
John Scofield is a world-renowned jazz guitarist. He has appeared with countless musicians in a wide variety of formats, with players ranging from Miles Davis and Pat Metheny to John Mayer. He recently produced a Ray Charles tribute album, and has toured on and off for the last few years with Medeski, Martin and Wood.
This image was created during his November, 2006 performance with MSMW (he being the “S” in Medeski, Scofield Martin and Wood) in support of their recent album “Out Louder”. His signature is faintly visible in the upper-right portion of the image.
Known for his versatility, his recent albums have delved into the jamband, dance and straight-ahead jazz realms, each marked by his signature tone and startling improvisation.
