Jason Coleman
Tuesday, November 2, 2010
7:00pm
Jason began to follow in his grandfather’s footsteps at an early age, singing when he was only two years old on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry at one of Floyd’s concerts. He performed twice with Floyd on national TV -- at age four, he sang while Floyd played on Nashville Now, hosted by Ralph Emery; and as a nine-year-old, he played a memorable Christmas piano duet with his grandad on Music City Tonight, hosted by Lorraine Crook and Crystal Gayle. Jason also fondly remembers playing on occasion at his grandfather’s live concerts.
Undoubtedly, the highlight of Jason’s burgeoning musical career occurred in May 2004, when he was given the honor of playing for the Country Music Hall of Fame Medallion Ceremony, recognizing Floyd’s induction into the Hall of Fame. It was an unforgettable performance with Jimmy Capps and the Opry Band, Hank Locklin, and Maura O'Connell, all in heartfelt tribute to his grandad's life and legacy.
In recent years, Jason has recorded and produced three of his own solo instrumental albums. In November 2005, he released his first album, an independently produced holiday collection entitled Merry Little Christmas.
In September 2006, Jason released his sophomore album, Legacy, a collection of the songs for which his grandfather is best remembered. Included are several of Floyd’s self-penned hits, most notably Last Date, as well as instrumental arrangements of country classics by other notable artists -- all of which featured Floyd on the original sessions. |
