Before even hitting his 13th birthday, jazz wunderkind Joey Alexander got a standing ovation at the 2016 Grammy Awards after playing “City Lights,” an original composition. The Indonesian-born pianist has played for Herbie Hancock and Bill Clinton, and topped a field of adult pros at the 2013 Master-Jam Fest in Odessa, Ukraine. Someday you’ll say you watched him play before he turned 13.
