High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Randy Napoleon (born 1977) is a jazz guitarist, composer, and arranger who is a member of The Freddy Cole Quartet and the leader of the Randy Napoleon Trio. He has toured with Benny Green, the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra (CHJO), led by John Clayton, Jeff Clayton and Jeff Hamilton, and with Michael Bublé. Napoleon was born in Brooklyn, New York. His family moved to Ann Arbor, Michigan, when Napoleon was young. One of Napoleon's formative experiences was in a big band at Ann Arbor Pioneer High School, led by the trumpeter Louis Smith. He also played at the jazz clubs in Ann Arbor and learned from jam sessions at the now defunct Bird of Paradise Club, where he also heard master jazz artists play. Early opportunities at the Del Rio, a local bar, and at events sponsored by WEMU, a local NPR jazz radio station, helped launch his career.[ Napoleon went on to study at the University of Michigan School of Music. He moved to New York City after graduating in 1999.
