History
Lunched was initially inspired by Leduc’s collaboration with the late violinist Billy Bang, whose acclaimed Vietnam-themed recordings Leduc conceived and co-produced. Subsequently, the opportunity arose to manage jazz piano legend Hank Jones, and their close collaboration and friendship yielded sold-out concerts the world over, and the Grammy-nominated recordings Pleased To Meet You (with Oliver Jones) and Come Sunday, with Charlie Haden. Leduc also managed the late piano giant Cedar Walton, up to his passing in August, 2013; the late vocal legend Mark Murphy; legendary drummer Jimmy Cobb; and pianist Harold Mabern.
