SeattleJazzScene.com and the Royal Room welcome the Larry Goldings Trio, featuring guitarist Peter Bernstein and drummer Bill Stewart, to Columbia City’s Royal Room for two shows on Thursday, June 20.
With his signature Hammond organ style and versatility on many keyboards, Boston native Larry Goldings (born 1968) has traversed not only the wide spectrum of jazz, where he is perhaps best known, but also the worlds of funk, pop, and alternative music. High-in-demand as a sideman, Goldings’ sound can be heard on scores of albums by artists in virtually every musical genre.
As a leader, Goldings has released 15 albums, many of which feature his long time organ trio with Peter Bernstein and Bill Stewart. This group is widely recognized for charting new ground, with the musicians’ synergistic playing and their hard-swinging – yet very thoughtful – music. In 2007, Goldings (alongside John Scofield and Jack DeJohnette) received a Best Jazz Album Grammy nomination for their recording Trio Beyond – Saudades (ECM).
Tickets are $15 advance; $18 day of show. More information at theroyalroomseattle.com.
