Now's the Time: Tia Fuller

Tia Fuller isn’t a member of the millennial generation, nor is a Kansas City gig listed at her site or in her social media feeds.  Yet the saxophonist and bandleader from Colorado is billed as a panelist at the Jazz, Millennials, and the Music and Legacy of Charlie Parker discussion at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art on Thursday, August 15.  Fuller last appeared in Kansas City in 2014 as a member of Teri Lyne Carrington’s band.  (Plastic Sax review.)  Plastic Sax caught her two years ago at the Charlie Parker Jazz Festival in New York City. (Plastic Sax review.)
