Recognized as one of the leading voices in the Jazz guitar world, MIKE MORENO has played with a who’s who of modern jazz: Joshua Redman Elastic Band, Lizz Wright Band, Nicholas Payton Quartet, Stefon Harris Sonic Creed, Me’Shell N’Degeocello, Jason Moran, Terence Blanchard, Robert Glasper, Gretchen Parlato, Claudia Acuña, Greg Osby 4, Wynton Marsalis and the Jazz At Lincoln Center Orchestra, Jeff “Tain” Watts, Jeremy Pelt, John Ellis, Kenny Garret and Yosvany Terry.
Mike has recorded with artists, both inside and outside of the Jazz genre, three of which were nominated for a Grammy. Both Q-Tip’s “The Renaissance” and Geoffrey Keezzer’s “Aurea” were nominated for Best Album in their categories in 2010, as well in 2008 Eldar’s “Re-Imagination” received the same nomination in the Jazz Category.
As Nate Chinen describes in JazzTimes, “There are many other guitarists out there pushing towards a modern ideal, but none with the precise coordinates that Mike Moreno has charted.”
