      About Thomas Chapin

      Thomas Chapin was a pioneering figure in the New York City jazz scene, known for his innovative compositions and virtuosic performances on multiple saxophones and flute. Born in Manchester, Connecticut, in 1957, Chapin's musical journey spanned the breadth of 20th-century creative music, from his early days as Lionel Hampton's bandleader to his groundbreaking work in avant-garde jazz. He was instrumental in shaping the Knitting Factory scene in the early 1980s and was the first artist signed to Knitting Factory Records. Chapin's trio, featuring bassist Mario Pavone and drummer Michael Sarin, was a staple of the downtown New York music scene, delivering powerful and emotionally charged performances. Despite his untimely passing at the age of 40 due to leukemia, Chapin's legacy endures through his influential recordings and compositions, which continue to inspire musicians and jazz enthusiasts alike.
