Josh Karas is an exciting up and coming pianist, composer, and bandleader based in Nashville, TN. In 2022, Karas became the first Jazz Major to graduate from Vanderbilt University's award-winning program. Since then, he has exploded onto the Nashville music scene, playing and recording with a wide variety of artists including Natasha Blaine, The 12 South Band, The Sofia Goodman Group, Don Aliquo, and more. Karas is the bandleader for The Karas Committee, an original jazz fusion project. They have performed to sold out audiences at venues such as Rudy's Jazz Room, The Analog, and The 5 Spot.
