Tim Warfield and his Organ Band at Messiah College
Hailing from York, Pennsylvania, saxophonist Tim Warfield has appeared on nearly 70 recordings and has been lauded for his swaggering and soulful musical approach. He has appeared on several Grammy-nominated recordings, including Stefon Harris' "The Grand Unification Theory," and Nicholas Payton's "Dear Louis" and "Sonic Trance." Additionally, Warfield has performed with such notable legends as Dizzy Gillespie, Isaac Hayes, Billy Paul, Peter Nero, and both the King and Queen of the Hammond B-3 organ, Jimmy Smith and Shirley Scott. His recordings "One for Shirley" and "A Sentimental Journey" showcase his organ band and received critical acclaim, including features in the New York Times by writer Ben Ratliff, in 2008 and 2010. His organ band hosts a stellar cast of musicians that include Trumpeter Terell Stafford, Organist Pat Bianchi, Drummer Byron Landham, and Percussionist Daniel Sadownick.
