Mark Wyner Won’t Comply Jul 18, 2025

If you need some joy in your day, this is my gift to you. Jon Batiste is a gem of a human being. He is also massively talented.

In this interview from 2023 with Chris Wallace, Jon talks about the limitations genres put on music. And THEN he genre hops through part of a Beethoven piece on the fly.

It’s so good. And Chris’ face is priceless. He’s almost giddy.

@haubles absolutely. I’ve seen a few interviews with him. I suspect that his friends, family, and bandmates are grateful to have him around.

@markwyner completely. I saw some clips of his wedding once, and they included some of the remarks from his loved ones. It was so heartwarming! Wish I could remember what I was watching
