Three time Grammy nominee and New York based jazz pianist Orrin Evans comes to Santa Fe with his trio on July 23rd. Evans has already released twenty nine albums as a leader, mostly on the Criss Cross label and was awarded a 2010 Pew Fellowships inThe Arts. He has become the model of a fiercely independent artist who pushes the envelope in all directions. Evans has led and collaborated on projects including the Eubanks Evans Experience, a duo with Kevin Eubanks; Lisa Fischer featuring the Orrin Evans Trio, a collaboration between the Grammy-winning vocalist and Evans’ trio with bassist Luques Curtis and drummer Mark Whitfield Jr. He recently released his fifth album with his Captain Black Big Band, Walk a Mile in My Shoe, which earned the ensemble its third Grammy nomination. Evans also earned the #1 ranking as “Rising Star Pianist” in the 2018 DownBeat Critics Poll, and is an influential educator whose students include alto saxophonist and Blue Note artist Immanuel Wilkins as well as Grammy-nominated pianist Brandon Goldberg. He also lends his experience and expertise as Board President of the Cape May Jazz Festival Foundation and as a board member for educational non-profit The Heart of Jazz and for the Pittsburgh International Jazz Festival.
The Orrin Evans Trio will also be appearing in Taos on Friday July 24th at The Harwood Museum and Saturday July 25th at The Albuquerque Museum.
