Wedding gig with  Jim Cox

Playing "What Is This Thing Called Love?" at the Rose Colella Jam Session at the Jazz Showcase,  August 26th, 2013.

Jazz pianist, composer and teacher Jim Sellers breathes life into any jazz style with boundless creativity and an adherence to the genre that evokes legendary players of the past.

Sellers’ gritty and soulful blues, exciting left-hand stride styles and poignant ballads capture his Chicago roots and never disappoint.

Chicago Jazz Magazine says, "Sellers uses his virtuosity and eclectic knowledge to excellent effect…novel approaches and notable musical surprises."  

Jim has performed with many of today’s jazz luminaries, including trumpeter Wynton Marsalis, saxophonists Frank Catalano and Richie Cole, vocalists Tammy McCann, Hailey Tuck and Spider Saloff, and bassists Nick Schneider

and Bill Yancey.
