Avery Sharpe has had an amazing career performing with many of the greats in the history of jazz and most notably was a key member of McCoy Tyners band for over 20 years. McCoy was a member of the John Coltrane’s legendary and seminal quartet that is one of the most important musical groups of the 20th century and Avery is a direct part of that lineage. He tells his story how he klinked up with McCoy and his early days of playing in the bands of both Archie Sheep and Art Blakey, playing with a very young Wynton Marsalis and shares some incredible stories about how that all that fell into place. Health and diet have been a central focus for Avery going completely plant based in 1977.  He was blazing the trail and a pioneer showing that musicians can tour the world while being healthy through diet and exercise.
