A jazz piano trio enjoyed by listeners of all ages. In the classic tradition of groups such as the Bill Evans Trio and Oscar Peterson Trio, The Art D'echo Trio displays musicianship exciting to both life-long jazz fans and audience members unfamiliar with the genre. Whether playing sophisticated, hard-swinging classic jazz arrangements or grooving on a Latin jazz tune, the interplay between three master musicians defines the group. David Gleason (piano) and Mike Lawrence (bass) have performed together since they were teenagers; Pete Sweeney (drums) and David Gleason began playing jazz together around the year 2000. By 2004 these three musicians had formed the rhythm section for a variety of local jazz groups including, at times, the rhythm section for the Latin jazz ensemble Sensemayá. In 2012, after realizing they were consistently called upon to form the core of many other groups, they established their own trio dedicated to music in the style of the great historic jazz piano trios. In the last few years they have been invited to play a variety or clubs, festivals and concerts as they continue to provide the foundation for many other ensembles. They have also appeared as the centerpiece for a “Jazzy Christmas,” a concert performance which featured the music of the Vince Gauraldi, performed sold out shows at both theatres and clubs and has even performed for 5 governors. The trio is currently working on recording their first album.
