About John
Fueled by his musical curiosity and the need to tell stories of perseverance and resilience, performer/producer/composer John Gray explores everything from Nigerian Jazz Fusion, to Soul-inspired Electronica, to Progressive Americana.
John Gray has performed as a bassist with jazz legend James Moody, international classical piano soloist Xiayin Wang, and Tony-nominated broadway vocalist Vivian Reed. John’s performing credits include the WQXR Holiday Special, the AAPI Jazz Festival, and the Bowery Ballroom in NYC. As a composer and producer, his music was featured in the syndicated British car show Top Gear, and the award-winning short film Ecstasy and Agony.
John’s motivation to break new musical ground by matching odd bedfellows led to successful album collaborations with Marvin Dolly, The Jazz Thieves, and Single Girl / Married Girl. These projects were profiled in The New York Times, Jazziz Magazine and American Songwriter. Additionally, he was featured in commercial recordings for the video game Empire of Sin, the Australian Kids TV show Beep and Mort, and the original cast recording of Goosebumps the Musical: Phantom of the Auditorium.
With a degree from Manhattan School of Music, John is currently available for performances and recording projects on bass, composing and producing projects, and educational outreach.

I have taught students ages 10 to 75 to explore their musical imagination by combining lessons on Bass, Piano, Guitar and/or Ukulele with composition, theory, and songwriting/production.
Students learn to play everything from the Grateful Dead to Thelonious Monk, from Imagine Dragons to Giveon, from Beethoven to Queen.
My students have gone on to attend Jazz at Lincoln Center High School Jazz Academy and win scholarships to Berklee and Manhattan School of Music. To keep my students motivated and inspired for the long term, I create customized practice plans for each individual.
I've worked with Grammy award-winning and Tony nominated, multi-platinum artists as a performer, teacher and consultant. I use all my professional experience in my teaching to ignite a passion for learning and music in my students.
