Tivon Pennicott

One of New York’s finest tenor-men, Tivon is a monster player. He’s got a beautiful sound, brilliant harmonic concept, and a formiddible sense of time. I admire Tivon a lot because he is so diverse. Not only can he SLAY a bebop tune, he can also play the simplest pop solo with guys like Gregory Porter.
