A stacked band at the top of their game, it’s a family affair: Thomas Marriott (trumpet), David Marriott (trombone), Joe Doria (B3 organ), Tim Kennedy (electric piano), and D’Vonne Lewis (drums). Leave it to the Marriotts to revive standards and soulful originals. Guaranteed to be one of the highest energy nights of the month.

One of the city’s finest ever jazz instrumentalists, the trumpeter, composer, and producer Thomas Marriott is this year’s Earshot Festival Resident Artist. A go-to for contemporary standard-bearers with a history beside jazz elders, Marriott’s horn has been in-demand with bands such as the Spanish Harlem Orchestra, Captain Black Big Band, Ivan Neville’s Dumpstafunk, hip-hop pioneer Deltron 3030, and vocalists Kurt Elling, Ernestine Anderson, among others. His own albums, 14 in all, have reached number one on the jazz radio airplay charts and earned 4 1/2 stars in Downbeat. Marriott has been featured in the New York Times and NPR, has won 9 Golden Ear Awards, and is the youngest inductee into the Seattle Jazz Hall of Fame. He has spent more than 20 seasons as a soloist with the Seattle Repertory Jazz Orchestra and is founder of Seattle Jazz Fellowship. In 2024, he was named a “Jazz Hero” by the Jazz Journalists Association of America.
