Tommy Muellner
Thomas Michael "Tommy" Muellner (born January 25, 1953) is an American jazz pianist and composer.
==Early life and family==
Tommy Muellner was born in Chicago, Illinois. His father John F. Muellner (born 1923 in Chicago) was Tommy's first musical influence. In his father's heyday, he played accordion in a dance band. On occasion he plays organ for senior citizen functions and enjoys playing on his Hammond at home.
Tommy comes from a home enriched with good music. With a variety of musical instruments to choose, he started playing some gigs at an early age. Although he has played drums, guitar, bass and organ, Tommy's natural preference was always the piano. Tommy grew up hearing many great jazz records, but the whole family especially loved the unique jazz piano artistry of Erroll Garner. In his early twenties, Tom discovered Bill Evans "by osmosis," and considers his influence on jazz to be significant. After that important discovery, he Muellner "realized when I finally heard the music, that jazz is more than music. It is great art, and a philosophy with spiritual ramifications."
In later years, Tommy's musical influences were gleaned from the likes of Evans, Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, and Dexter Gordon. He learned mostly from the great classic jazz recordings. He also learned a great deal from playing with master musicians like Ira Sullivan, as well as other lesser known musicians he worked with at a younger age. His favorite pianists include Art Tatum, Hank Jones, Bud Powell, Barry Harris, McCoy Tyner, Monty Alexander, Keith Jarrett, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Steve Kuhn, Denny Zeitlin, Fred Hersch and his close friend John Campbell.
