The John Scofield Trio offers an evening of jazz mastery and spontaneous invention. They are revered for transforming the classic trio format into a space for nuanced, boundary-pushing expression. If you love jazz that’s intricate, dynamic, and alive with improvisation, this trio’s high-wire interplay is a must.
John Scofield: A three-time Grammy-winning guitarist and composer, Scofield is renowned for his distinctive sound that blends post-bop, funk-tinged jazz, and R&B. With nearly 50 albums as a leader and collaborations alongside Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, and Pat Metheny, Scofield’s intuitive and bold improvisations are at their peak in trio settings.
Bill Stewart: Acclaimed for his lyrical drumming and sharp interplay, Stewart has performed and recorded with jazz legends Pat Metheny, Joe Lovano, Michael Brecker, and more. His inventive, dynamic approach is central to the Trio’s signature synergy.
Vicente Archer: One of today’s most profound new bass voices, Archer brings melodic depth and deft groove, shaped by years performing alongside Kenny Garrett, Wynton Marsalis, Robert Glasper, and other heavyweights.
The trio explores an exhilarating mix of Scofield originals, jazz classics, and unexpected gems from Bob Dylan to Miles Davis. What unfolds is a tapestry of tight jazz standards, savvy compositions, and fearless improvisation.
