SMALL CITY TRIO  

  

 

"Restless, probing, thoroughly contemporary material that often swung mightily, eddied in thoughtful reveries, and tapped a wide array of jazz (and sometimes blues and country) roots."   -City Pages

 

The "Small City Trio" is bassist Jeff Brueske, New York pianist/composer Jeremy Walker, and drummer Tim Zhorne playing original compositions  and arrangements of jazz compositions, primarily by Ellington and Strayhorn.  The band can be heard live around the Twin Cities at Dakota Jazz Club, Red Stag, and at clubs throughout the Midwest.

"a hard-swinging group that plays with bravado and passion that transcends the genre and captures its fundamental appeal and excitement” - JAZZ IS NOW!

The string trio of Gary Schulte, Reynold Philipsek, and Jeff Brueske plays new and old music that echoes the sound of the great Hot Club music of Stephane Grappelli and Django Reinhardt.  The band has received enthusiastic response from audiences across the Midwest.
