E6 - Ronnie Burrage
Recorded March 2024
From performing with Duke Ellington at just nine years old, having his own band with Marcus Miller and Kenny Kirkland, to playing with Sonny Rollins, Pat Metheny, McCoy Tyner, and countless others, Ronnie has had a really impressive career.
He's currently staying busy teaching, working with his non-profit called World Rhythm Academy, and playing with his band, Holographic Principle.
