Mathis\u2019s father, a vaudeville singer and pianist, quickly recognized his son\u2019s natural talent. Determined to nurture it, he bought an old upright piano for just $25 (equivalent to $447 today) and fully supported his son\u2019s musical journey.<\/p>\n<p>While growing up in San Francisco, Mathis crossed paths with jazz legends performing in the city, finding deep inspiration in the legendary Duke Ellington.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEllington was one of my heroes because of his intellect.
