Yokley has performed for music legend Quincy Jones as well playing with motown legends The Four Tops, The Temptations, The O’ Jays and singer songwriter Rhonda Ross. He performs as a classical soloist and chamber music and leads his own jazz quartet, Sound Reformation, which is comprised of Zaccai Curtis on piano, Luques Curtis on bass, and Wayne Smith Jr. on drums. He has also worked with many great jazz musicians such as Orrin Evans, Nasheet Waits, Ralph Peterson, Jack Walrath, Frank Lacy, Valery Ponomarev, Eddie Allen, and Camille Gainer Jones to name a few.
