Description

In this episode of On Point with Tillis, Rutgers–Camden Chancellor Antonio D. Tillis hosts musician and producer Quentin Baxter. As the drummer and co-founder of the two-time Grammy-winning jazz ensemble Ranky Tanky (a Gullah phrase for “get funky”), Baxter discusses how the group fused jazz music with the traditions of South Carolina’s Gullah region to develop a sound that has been described as “soulful honey to the ears."

This episode of On Point with Tillis explores the creative mind of Reynier Llanes, whose art exhibition Pursuit of Grace opens at Rutgers–Camden's Stedman Gallery on September 18.
