The University in Exile 

The University In Exile is a political/prog rock band based in NYC. Our music takes from Southern Rock and Experimental music. My name is Bryant Jackson and I am the composer , saxophonist, vocalist and leader of the band. On guitar we have Julian Apter. Julian and I met at the New School for Jazz where we both graduated. It’s also where we met our bassist David Pilla who is currently still attending. Next we have our wonderfully amazing synth/keyboard player Jon Elbaz whom I met in the Jazz scene at Smalls Jazz club. You can hear a great deal of improvisation in our music as well because we are all mainly Jazz musicians playing rock music and at times it shows. Lastly on Drums we have Miguel Russell. Miguel is from Florida like David
