Biography
“I just got done seeing Spero jam,” raves Chris Devins, music connoisseur and executive producer of Hot Wax TV. “Spero was jammin’!” Spero was recently featured in the Hyde Park Jazz Festival, which Devins comments showcases the best young jazz musicians from Chicago.
“Spero is fresh and exciting,” adds Chicago’s most prominent female Latin artist Guia Rivera. “Even people, who don’t like jazz, like Spero. He’s that good.”
What can we expect from a musician who has three generations of Spero coursing through his bloodline? It was his father and grandfather who raised him in the tradition of true musicianship. But what we don’t expect: abnormality. He’s fearless to break from the established rules of music theory, truly wild in improvisational technique. Spero constantly pushes the boundaries onstage and offstage with his eccentric, signature style of playing. When you hear him experiment with jazz fusion onstage, you wonder, is this guy high or something? Think Jimi Hendrix but on a keyboard. Spero’s drug of choice: coffee. He’s racked up so many points on his Starbucks card, he’s one junkie who just can’t live without java. Fans, be aware that a fresh batch of chocolate brownies will appease the budding jazz musician.
Another question: Can one truly equate jazz musician with being sexy? Today we can. Depending on his mood, Spero decides if he wants to rock a ‘fro this fashion season. The ladies love him regardless.
