About this Event

The Chris Greene Quartet has been a highly visible part of Chicago’s jazz scene since 2005, and has maintained a stable lineup from the beginning, with the exception of Steve Corley, who has held the drum chair since 2011. Damian Espinosa on piano and keyboards and Marc Piane on acoustic and electric basses have been onboard since the beginning.

Unique among Chicago bands, most of whom feature, by necessity, constantly shifting personnel, the CGQ has been able to develop a true group sound and feel, harking back to bands from the classic age of jazz when groups could stay together for long periods of time. While honoring the tradition, the CGQ incorporates elements of funk, hip-hop, rock, pop, the blues and reggae, reflecting their diverse backgrounds.

CGQ was also recently honored at the 2018 Chicago Music Awards with an award for “Best Jazz Entertainer” and was voted 2022's "Best Jazz Ensemble" in the Chicago Reader's "Best of Chicago" Reader's Poll - the 2nd time they've received this honor!


"[...] a hearty tone and sharp wit...a proud descendant of such 60s soul-jazz saxophonists as Gene Ammons and Eddie Harris.”-- DownBeat Magazine

​“Chris Greene is a Chicago jazz treasure.”-Rick Kogan, Chicago Tribune.
