Scott Hamilton w. Triology

Saturday, June 29 | Hermann's Jazz Club | 7pm

“Following a Scott Hamilton solo is like listening to a great conversationalist in full flow. First comes the voice, the inimitable, assured sound of his tenor saxophone, then the informal style and finally the amazing fluency and eloquent command of the jazz language.” Dave Gelly

Scott Hamilton is a true living legend and one of the greatest American tenor saxophonists. His warm, golden saxophone tone carries on the tradition of the classic jazz tenor masters such as Ben Webster, Coleman Hawkins, Zoot Sims, and Don Byas. He successfully bridges the gap between swing and bop with a fluency and elegance that few players achieve. He has recorded with some of the best pianists in the business (Tommy Flanagan, Gene Harris, John Bunch, Norman Simmons), and played with Benny Goodman and Rosemary Clooney. Triology is a supergroup of three award-winning Canadian jazz musicians based in Vancouver – Jodi Proznick on bass, Miles Black on piano, and Bill Coon on guitar. All three of the members have won numerous accolades over the years including JUNO nominations, National Jazz Awards, Galaxie Rising Star Awards, and Western Canadian Music Awards, and have shared the stage with jazz legends such as George Coleman, David “Fathead” Newman, Ed Thigpen, Clark Terry, Max Roach, Sheila Jordan and Harry “Sweets” Edison.
