Durham Jazz Workshop
Born in Iowa and raised in North Carolina, Cameron Cook first started playing saxophone in middle school, quickly falling in love with the power and beauty of the instrument. During his formative years he has admired and absorbed the influence of many tenor saxophone greats, like Sonny Rollins, John Coltrane and Joe Henderson, in addition to studying with local legends Dave Finucane and Stephen Riley. In his music, Cameron wishes to approach the jazz genre from a variety of different angles to highlight jazz's ability to absorb different styles and yet retain the feeling and spirit of jazz. 

"Jazz is the type of music that can absorb so many things and still be jazz" - Sonny Rollins

Cameron Cook is a tenor saxophonist, composer and bandleader from Chapel Hill, NC. After graduating from UNC Chapel Hill in 2015, Cook has been busy in the Triangle music scene, playing with a variety of groups, spanning a number of genres from jazz to funk, folk rock and even Appalachian-klezmer folk. A principal goal of the Cameron Cook Trio is to recognize traditional jazz tunes and forms while also incorporating new ideas and emphasizing the importance of taking the audience on a journey through music.
