Pieces of a Dream

Philadelphia's Pieces of a Dream are a leading contemporary jazz and R&B outfit known for their breezy, warm, accessible sound. The first act to be signed to saxophonist Grover Washington, Jr.'s production company, the group solidified their sound and cross-genre fan base with albums like 1982's We Are One, 1984's Imagine This, and 1986's Joyride, the latter of which hit number three on Billboard's Traditional Jazz Albums chart. In addition to touring with George Benson, Earth, Wind & Fire, Patrice Rushen, Chaka Khan, and others, Pieces of a Dream have remained chart regulars, continually landing in the Top 20 on the contemporary jazz charts with albums like 1993's In Flight, 2006's Pillow Talk, and 2017's Just Funkin' Around. In 2019, the band hit number one with On Another Note.
