Nicholas Payton Booking Agency Profile
Born in New Orleans, Walter Payton is a well-known bassist, and his mother, Maria Payton, is a pianist and singer. Since childhood, Payton has pursued his passion. He started playing the trumpet at the age of four and began performing professionally at the age of ten, making him a prodigy before he even started first grade.
He was already in demand before turning twenty, having worked with Danny Barker, Clark Terry, Elvin Jones and Marcus Roberts. On the renowned Verve label, Payton published his debut album, From this Moment. For the record Doc Cheatham & Nicholas Payton, he was nominated for his first Grammy in the Best Instrumental Solo category, where he went on to win the prize that year.
Leading authorities on the problematics of the term and connections of "jazz," Payton has influenced scholars, intellectuals, musicians and music lovers in equal measure with his groundbreaking works and discussions. As a result, he coined the name Black American Music, or #BAM for short, to refer to the variety of improvisational musical works, regardless of genre, produced by Black Americans..

An example fee to book Nicholas Payton is in the starting range of $40,000-$74,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
