Happy Birthday, Gerald Albright |
| Aug 30 2010 |
Gerald Albright turns 53 today [Aug. 30]. He grew up in Los Angeles, starting piano lessons at a young age, but was drawn to the saxophone after eyeing one belonging to his piano teacher. While developing his musical chops, Albright got a B.S. degree in business management from the University of Redlands. Soon after graduating, he found himself in demand as a session musician for artists including Anita Baker, the Temptations and Olivia Newton-John. He also spent many years on the road backing Phil Collins. As skilled on bass as he is the saxophone, Albright has appeared on TV shows including Melrose Place, A Different World and numerous BET jazz segments. His latest album is Pushing The Envelope.
