Tuba player Marcus Rojas has played in a wide variety of musical contexts, with artists ranging from the American Symphony Orchestra to reggae's Sly & Robbie; from jazz great Lionel Hampton to extremist artist Foetus. Rojas has performed in Henry Threadgill's ensembles throughout the '90s and has been a familiar face on the stage of N.Y.C.'s Knitting Factory. One of the many live recordings from this club that Rojas appears on is the influential John Zorn's Cobra. Rojas played with trumpeter Steven Bernstein in the trio Spanish Fly, and can be heard on Michael Blake's Vietnamese-influenced jazz album Kingdom of Champa on the Intuition label. Rojas also appears on releases from the labels Black Saint, Tzadik, Sony, Shanachie, Thirsty Ear, and many more. ~ Joslyn Layne, Rovi
