Alexa Tarantino is an award-winning jazz saxophonist whom you may remember from our Ulysses Owens Jr. Generation Y performance in 2020. Named one of the Top 5 Alto Saxophonists by JazzTimes Critics’ Poll, Tarantino has established herself as a high-octane, dynamic performer. While she and her bandmates approach the set with tradition firmly in mind, they bring an invigorating way of looking forward.
