Terry WollmanMusic Director, Producer, Composer,
Multi Instrumentalist
Some people are born with talent,
some are born with desire, and some have sheer forceof will regardless
of their gifts.
Terry Wollman embraced these qualities,
added his passion for music, and through his
innate curiosity, ability and perseverance,
emerged as a skilled artist, forging an enviable
career that has crossed over into every major
category of music in the spectrum.
An accomplished and versatile producer,
composer, and musician, Terry has commanded
such diverse projects touring, recording and
performing as music director and/or guitarist
for dozens of renowned artists including
Keb’ Mo’, Billy Preston, The 5th Dimension,
Wilson Phillips, Al Jarreau, Joan Baez,
Joe Walsh, Gerald Albright and Eartha Kitt,
to name just a few.
Originally from Miami, Terry was formally
educated in Boston, graduating with a
Bachelor’s Degree in Arranging from the
prestigious Berklee College of Music.
Soon after arriving in Los Angeles, Terry
built a solid reputation as an in-demand
session guitarist and producer contributing
to all styles of music from jazz to pop, rock,
blues, R&B and beyond.
“Every so often an opportunity comes along to create music out of the ordinary.”
A notable highlight of Terry’s illustrious career is
a Grammy nomination for his first solo recording,
“Bimini”, a contemporary jazz collection that also
received worldwide critical acclaim. His second
solo album, “Say Yes”, was extremely well-received
inlarge part due to his eclectic musical choices
and a notable array of guest artists such as Joe
Sample, Abe Laboriel, Luis Conte and Michael
McDonald interpreting Terry’s sonic vision.
Terry’s TV engagements include stints for
“The Byron Allen Show”, FOX TV’s “Late Show”,

Jay Leno”, “Married With Children” and “Scrubs”.
