Warren Wolf

Baltimore’s Warren Wolf is an acclaimed jazz vibraphonist known for his sophisticated, exploratory, nearly acrobatic post-bop style that moved one critic to exclaim that “he plays the vibraphone like an electric guitar!” Since 2005, he has been recording as a leader and touring with his own groups. His debut, Incredible Jazz Vibes for M&I Jazz, garnered attention from critics all over the globe. In 2007 he became a member of bassist Christian McBride’s Inside Straight quintet. In 2011, Wolf signed a deal with Detroit’s Mack Avenue label, and delivered his widely celebrated self-titled offering. After touring with the bassist, being an in-demand session player, and leading his own groups on tours of clubs and festival stages, Wolf issued Convergence in 2016; its lineup included McBride (who also acted as co-producer), Jeff “Tain” Watts , John Scofield, and Brad Mehldau.
