Known for blending the technical precision of jazz with the infectious spirit of funk, pop, and soul, Cory Wong has carved out a singular space as one of modern music’s most dynamic and joyful performers.

Initially a member of Vulfpeck, he’s since built a prolific solo career, releasing a steady stream of albums that showcase his unmatched versatility from horn-driven funk and instrumental fusion to expansive collaborations with artists including Jon Batiste, The Jonas Brothers, Bruce Hornsby, Chromeo, Billy Strings, Victor Wooten, and more. 

His live performances with the Cory Wong Band and the Fearless Flyers have also become must-see events for music lovers, guitar enthusiasts, and groove seekers alike.

Beyond his work as a performer, Wong has established himself as a visionary collaborator and creative force in the modern music landscape.

His projects often extend into visual and digital storytelling including his self-produced variety series The Wongnotes and his work as host of the Wong Notes Podcast, where he explores creativity and craft with fellow artists.

He plays Rock City on Wednesday, December 2.
