“21st Century Band is a true representation of my musicianship. It is my vision to have a platform that features the musical talent of The U.S. Virgin Island”

With his music Dion Parson introduces and presents a mixture of Jazz and Caribbean rhythms in a true Jazz setting.

Caribbean Jazz Summit

21st Century Band involves great musicians from the U. S. Virgin Islands living in the metropolitan area. Their culture connects the band members in a special way and most of all allows them to speak the same musical language. Therefore the band’s unique sound lies in the translation of traditional Caribbean music being incorporated with Jazz music. This combination of rhythm and harmonies are the basic recipe for their unique music sound.
