Creative Confidential

The word virtuoso gets thrown around a lot but today's guest is exactly that. Laurence Hobgood (http://laurnecehobgood.com) is a classically trained pianist who started playing jazz in his teen years. A chance meeting with vocalist Kurt Elling led to a 20 year stint at Elling's musical director, during which time Laurence collected multiple GRAMMY nominations and a Grammy award in 2010. Now leading his own ensemble, Laurence is forging his own path.
