LARRY CORYELL TRIO

LARRY CORYELL TRIO

Saturday, January 17 at 8:00PM

Tickets: $20/$15 Jazz Club, GPAC Family

Larry Coryell has been described by Whitney Balliett as “the most innovative and original guitarist since

Charlie Christian.” His playing is fresh and exciting giving standards and jazz standards a unique treatment that

only a true master can give. He will be joined by Mark Neuenschwander on bass and Tracy Alexander on drums

in this performance.

As one of the pioneers of 60's - 70's jazz-- perhaps the pioneer in the ears of some -- Larry Coryell

deserves a special place in the history books. He brought a unique sensibility to jazz electric guitar playing in the

1960s, a hard-edged, cutting tone, phrasing and note-bending that owed as much to blues, rock and even

country as it did to earlier, smoother bop influences. A true eclectic, armed with a brilliant technique, he is

comfortable in almost every style, from the most decibel-heavy, distortion-laden electric work to the most

delicate, soothing, intricate lines on acoustic guitar.

Co-Produced by South County Jazz Club and GPAC.
