Seasoned Jazz Trombonist, Composer & Arranger Jason Forsythe and Multi-Grammy-Winning Trumpeter Brian Lynch

Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with seasoned jazz trombonist, composer, and arranger Jason Forsythe, joined by multi-Grammy-winning trumpeter Brian Lynch. We talk with this powerhouse duo about their new 2025 album It’s About Time, their experiences playing with the legends, crafting music at the highest level, live shows, and so much more. Released on Brian’s label Hollistic MusicWorks, It’s About Time marks Jason’s first release solely as a composer. The nine-track album was co-produced by Jason and Brian and features an ensemble of heavy-hitters, including tenor saxophonist Walt Weiskopf, trombonist Steve Davis, pianist Michael Weiss, bassist Ugonna Okegwo, and drummer Andy Watson. Jason’s musical journey stretches back to the ’60s and ’70s when, as a young jazz devotee, he transcribed hundreds of solos while developing his voice as a composer. Brian Lynch, meanwhile, is a towering figure in both Latin jazz and straight-ahead jazz, known for his electrifying sound, deep musical knowledge, and legacy of collaboration with some of the greatest names in the music.
