etienne charles & creole soul resources

Caribbean and New Orleans rhythms are brought to life by the brilliant trumpet player, composer, and bandleader Etienne Charles and his band, Creole Soul. In this compelling concert experience, you’ll groove to jazz, calypso, reggae, and soul music.

Etienne Charles is a Trinidadian native who has made a name for himself as a virtuoso on the trumpet. His artistic projects often dive into Afro-diasporic cultures, folklore, and histories. Etienne advocates for access to the arts and believes live music uplifts people of all backgrounds. Putting his philosophy into practice, Etienne brings his music to schoolchildren and other groups who are unable to attend his performances in his homeland of Trinidad and Tobago.

The Jazz Times described Etienne Charles as “a daring improviser who delivers with heart-wrenching lyricism.” He has received numerous awards, including the prestigious Guggenheim Fellowship. A graduate of the Julliard School master program, Etienne is currently a professor of Jazz Studies at Michigan State University.
