Heralded as the “next Chris Botti,” Jonathan Dely leads his All-Star Band across the United States, from venues including Lincoln Center in New York to SFJAZZ in San Francisco to The NAMM Show in Los Angeles.
After declining a full-time, six-figure investment banking position on Wall Street to become a solo trumpet artist, Jonathan earned finalist honors in the National Trumpet Competition, the International Trumpet Guild Jazz Competition, and the Yamaha Young Performing Artist Competition, and has in short time become a rising star jazz artist.
Dely’s journey from Wall Street to the stage recently caught the eye of Bob Giraldi, legendary filmmaker and director of Michael Jackson’s “Beat It,” who cast Jonathan in his 2023 short film Goodbye Jonathan's Soul, the story of a young musician on the precipice of accepting a lucrative Wall-Street job who wrestles with leaving his jazz band behind forever. • GOODBYE JONATHAN'S SOU... is currently screening at national and international film festivals. Dely composed and performed the film’s music at Giraldi’s request.
Dely graduated with honors from Williams College before earning his Master’s on scholarship at Manhattan School of Music.
