Bio
Jacob Stickney was born and raised in Seattle, Washington, and is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Music at Cornish College of the Arts in Jazz Saxophone Performance (expected to graduate in the Spring of 2010). He began his formal music training at age 14, starting on the alto saxophone. Part way through high school, he switched to the tenor saxophone. Since then, he has had the opportunity to perform with a host of in-demand musicians in the Seattle area, including Evan Flory-Barnes, Josh Rawlings, D'Vonne Lewis, Jeremy Jones, Eric Vaughan, and many others. In addition, he has studied saxophone privately with Gary Hammon, Hans Teuber, and Denney Goodhew. Upon entering as a student at Cornish, Jacob also began honing his composition skills, studying privately with world-renowned trombonist and composer, Julian Priester.
He has also led many collaborative projects with a number of musicians on the Seattle music scene, namely the Stickney/Grasso Quintet (which performed at the 2007 Ballard Jazz Walk), Means of Communication, Flow, and the Welch/Stickney Ensemble.
