Jay Anderson

We Make Music Here Jay Anderson isn’t your typical musician. And at the age young age of 24, Anderson is more of a 21st century renaissance man.

He studied music and biological studies, which led him to learn to become a farmer. He currently cultivates various chiles for local hot sauce company. Anderson is also an accomplished cook, but it is his passion for music, where he brings the spice and heat to the city of Milwaukee. Anderson has become one of Milwaukee’s most prolific and hardest working musicians. He currently leads three Milwau

kee bands. He is the resident saxophonist for the Milwaukee Art Museum. He also held year long residency at the Jazz Estate. Not only he is one of city’s best saxophone player, he is a champion and student of jazz. Anderson is in the forefront of a jazz resurgence in Milwaukee. Just as new artists like Kamasi Washington is bringing jazz to a new generation of fans throughout the country and the world, Anderson is doing that on a local level in Milwaukee. Watching him perform live in groups like New Age Narcissism and his own group Foreign Goods is like watching someone possessed by giants like Coltrane and Parker. While Anderson is a true lover of jazz, he also incorporates is passion and talent for jazz into other genres like hip hop and rock. This is one of the reason why he is in high demand in the city. He has collaborated and recorded with a variety of Milwaukee artists from electronic producer Strehlow of Noh Life to the post punk group, The Fatty Acids to the intense hip hop of Lorde Fred33. His newest group, Foreign Goods is a force to be reckon with in Milwaukee. Blending jazz, hip hop, soul, and touch of Afro-Beat, the band is one of the best live bands in the city. Foreign Goods will be releasing a live EP on Gloss Records (GGOOLLDD, Platinum Boys). Anderson is currently working on the Foreign Goods debut album. While he is not on stage, Anderson works to improve the Milwaukee music scene. He is the creator and curator of jazz supper club series at Company Brewing, where he brings some of city’s best jazz musicians together to perform weekly. One of those shows was an amazing tribute to Miles Davis. Anderson also co-founded and curated the three-day Strange Fruit Music Festival, which addressed the racial unrest in Milwaukee. Over the years, Jay Anderson has shared the stage with artists like The Roots, Flaming Lips, and Lupe Fiasco. Last year, his group Foreign Goods headlined the popular Milwaukee festival, Summer Soulstice. Jay Anderson also has been featured in Milwaukee Magazine, Milwaukee Record and other publications.
