Says Giveton "pursuing jazz is difficult when you lack an environment in which to develop," but from the age of 10 the young devotee taught himself how to play the trumpet by emulating the greats on his favorite records. It wasn't until he saw Bahamian double bass player Adrian D'Aguilar playing live that Giveton realised "there was a place for jazz in the Bahamas!" This encounter led to Giveton taking part in music programs abroad such as The Manhattan School of Music Summer Camp Jazz Band, Manhattan School of Music Summer Camp Latin Jazz Band and The Spike Wilner Trio. Giveton has won top position at both the YoungArts Foundation and the Betty Carter Jazz ahead program. Giveton has received mentoring from some of the world's greatest jazz musicians including Wynton Marsalis, Nicholas Payton, Eddie Henderson, Barry Harris, Jason Moran, Ralph Peterson, Roy Hargrove and much more. Giveton continues to follow his life's calling and is now in his first year of a full scholarship at the famed Juilliard School in New York City.
