About this Event

A group of accomplished, veteran jazz musicians, the George Cotsirilos Quartet features 
George Cotsirilos on guitar, Keith Saunders on piano, Robb Fisher on bass and Ron Marabuto on drums.

The group’s recent widely acclaimed CD, Refuge, was named by Downbeat magazine as an Editors’ Pick, and as one of the best albums of 2022. Their 2018 CD, Mostly In Blue, received similar praise, was also named by Downbeat as one of the best albums of the year and spent over three months in the top 50 on the national Jazz Weekly radio charts, rising to number 15.

Quartet members have performed with such luminaries as Cal Tjader, Carmen McCrae, Etta James, Chet Baker, Tommy Flanagan, Eddie Harris and Joe Lovano, among many others. At The Back Room, the quartet will perform original compositions along with some nuggets from the jazz canon.
