Reginald Chapman is a forward-thinking artist whose musical expressions are deeply rooted in the language of jazz while embracing a wide array of contemporary sounds. With a solid foundation in trombone performance, Chapman has evolved into a multifaceted musician, composer, and arranger. His body of work reflects a bold amalgamation of jazz tradition and modern influences, constructing a bridge between complex musical arrangements and accessible melodies.

Chapman’s repertoire, including compositions like "Accretion" and "There Is This Thing," showcases his prowess in creating immersive soundscapes that challenge and delight the listener's ear. His foray into merging jazz sensibilities with hip-hop and electronic music is evident in tracks like "Bone 2 2 (Macon Mann Remix)," which demonstrate how he fluently speaks the evolving language of contemporary music. His release "A Day Without You" further epitomizes this sentiment, underscoring the emotional resonance powerfully conveyed through his horn. Whether collaborating in studio sessions, such as those in East Williamsburg, or reinterpreting classics like "I Got It Bad (And That Ain't Good)," Chapman's work maintains a remarkable balance of technical mastery and passionate artistry.
