About Byzantine Quartet
The Byzantine Quartet led by trumpeter DeCarlo Jackson, was formed last summer as a sextet. DeCarlo Jackson decided to create a group in which they played whatever music they wanted within the traditional concept of Jazz. So the combo will be playing a wide variety of songs from indie bands such as Grizzly Bear, and Vactioner. To Hip-Hop artists like Pharrell Williams, and Chance The Rapper. While at the same time thoroughly exploring the realms of Free Jazz, and Hard-Bop.
