Everyone loves Scrimgeour’s annual “Charlie Brown Christmas Jazz Concert,” but Aidan Scrimgeour is back with his trio and a Duke Ellington tribute concert to ring in the summer! The Mostly Aidans Trio, featuring Aidan Scrimgeour on piano and Aidan Cafferty on bass.
Aidan Scrimgeour is a musician, composer and educator from Salem, MA based in Brooklyn, NY. After studying piano performance in the Contemporary Improvisation Program at New England Conservatory with Ran Blake and Hankus Netsky, he graduated with a B.A. in Performance & Representation from Tufts University. In 2020, Aidan co-founded Brooklyn Porch Music, an educational and performance collective that emerged from daily ritualistic concerts throughout the early months of the pandemic. This program provides free music lessons, ensembles and writing workshops for teens in South Brooklyn communities.
Aidan’s musical projects and collaborations incorporate elements of jazz, country, and Irish traditional music, among others. He has performed throughout the country with a variety of groups, playing piano, organ and accordion. In the words of Roy Nathanson of the Jazz Passengers, “the gentle and generous spirit of Aidan’s piano playing leaves you underestimating his remarkable attention to detail and the complexity of his melodic and harmonic ideas. I have been lucky to have played with some amazing players and composers in my 70 years and I can say that Aidan Scrimgeour is a very, very special musician.”
