Hiromi: The Trio Project feat. James Genus & Simon Phillips

Hiromi brings back her Trio Project in Fall 2026, with a new recording and new tour. Here, she reunites with English drummer Simon Phillips (Jeff Beck, Judas Priest, Tears for Fears, Toto, The Who). “It is always an amazing experience to be able to work with Simon,” says Hiromi. Joining them onstage is bassist James Genus (Herbie Hancock, Whitney Houston, Roy Haynes, Chick Corea, Daft Punk, SNL).
Hiromi has enjoyed a fruitful twenty-plus year career as a recording artist. Moreover, the jazz piano phenomenon has shifted seamlessly from one spellbinding project to the next. In the process, she’s earned a reputation as one of the most explosive live performers in jazz history. Further, she has become a global ambassador for the artform. Her many triumphs include an NPR Tiny Desk Concert that has racked up 2 million views.
Additionally, she represented her native Japan with a performance at the 2021 Summer Olympicsin Tokyo. Also, in 2024 the Japanese Academy awarded her Best Music Score for the animated feature film Blue Giant. Then, she won a Grammy Award for a collaboration with fusion hero Stanley Clarke. Her artistry is—to borrow a descriptor the New Yorker favored —“dazzling.”
Here, Hiromi’s monumental success lies in her rare ability to deliver not only show-stopping virtuosity but also sheer joy.
