Meet an Awesome Jamaican Musician!

[Historian]

This is a guy whose playing I admire immensely. He is a Jamaican gem!

Dennis Rushton


Dennis Rushton, renowned Jamaican pianist, began his love affair with music at an early age. He began classical piano training in the Royal School of Music programme at age 9 and later ventured into other genres. Rushton was guided in his music career by some of Jamaica’s best including Marjorie Whylie, Jon Williams and Paulette Bellamy. Their counsel paid off indeed as in July 1999 Rushton was awarded the Best Instrumentalist award at the Annual Tri-State Music Awards in New York.

His talent has also been recognised locally where he serves as judge on Television Jamaica’s hit series All Together Sing. Dennis has also opened for international artistes such as Kirk Franklin, Alvin Slaughter, Shirley Ceaser, CeCe Winans and others. His musical styling has been heard around the world, including performances in the United States and the Caribbean as well as features on BET Jazz and The Word Network, extending his reach to over 200 million viewers worldwide

My old schoolmate. He's pretty good at table tennis too, but then again, everyone who went to CBar during the early 80's was pretty good too, including myself. Money TT was an addiction.

Heard him play at the Pegasus when the last time I was in JA. He is pretty good no doubt about it.
