Peter and Will Anderson

During their undergraduate studies, they were both selected from an international pool of applicants for the Betty Carter's Jazz Ahead program, which included a residency of performances at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC.

Their ensembles have performed in over 35 U.S. States, toured Japan, and been featured four times in New York City's famed “Highlights in Jazz"[2] series, alongside Lou Donaldson, Ken Peplowski, and Warren Vache.

The brothers worked together to create, produce and star in five off-Broadway show runs at 59E59 Theaters in Manhattan (Le Jazz Hot, The Count Meets the Duke, The Fabulous Dorseys, and the Joy of Sax).

The Andersons have also appeared as members of ensembles led by Bob Wilber, Vince Giordano, Wycliffe Gordon, Jimmy Heath, as well as the Village Vanguard Jazz Orchestra.

"[4] In 2012, The New York Post described their music as “toe-tapping, heart-lifting jazz.”[8] In 2014, the Seattle Times wrote “Everything they play sounds fresh, creative and in the moment… [they make] everything they do sound easy –which of course it isn’t… These guys flood the room with joy.”[9] In 2014, Mike Joyce from the Washington Post reviewed the Anderson Trio album, Reed Reflections and said, “their saxophones and clarinets elegantly converge, converse and engage in delightful counterpoint… the arrangements imaginatively unfolding in ways that consistently bring a fresh perspective to classic jazz tunes.”[6] In 2015, Jazz Times wrote “Their newest album, Deja Vu, features Albert “Tootie” Heath and was called “a burner that reveals the band’s cohesiveness and spirit… the Andersons excel.”[7] Peter and Will are featured in a Vanity Fair article by Will Friedwald entitled, “There Millennials Are Shaking up the Jazz World.
