One Trip Out

The John A. Lewis trio announces the release of their third recording on the Valarteri Records Label. The trio consists of pianist/composer John A Lewis, bassists Lincoln Apeland and drummer Merik Gillett. The trio has been performing together for over four years. This offering from the trio displays a uniqueness in concept that can only be achieved by original compositions with individual and group interpretations. Sometimes the trio is playing as one sometimes as two and other times as three. John's writing style is not something that you would learn in a school of music. Non-triditional chord changes taken as a whole function around a key center in the improviser's ear first and then the listener. The trio takes possession of these vehicles and rides them to wherever they go.
