About the event
Long time collaborators Erika Oba (@erika_oba, piano) and Chris Bastian (bass) are joined by Jeremy Steinkoler (drums) in this dynamic trio performing original compositions and arranged works that cover a range of emotions and styles. Drawing on influences ranging from Theolonius Monk to Okinawan folk music, the band deftly navigates from be-bop to classically influenced, through-composed pieces, captivating audiences with music coming from deep listening and a remarkably intuitive sense of comping and phrasing to support one another. The group’s last performance moved Back Room owner Sam Rudin to describe it as “One of the finest afternoons of music we’ve EVER had here." Tickets available here.
