THE DAVID GORDON TRIO

David Gordon – piano

Oli Hayhurst – bass

Tom Hooper - drums

The David Gordon Trio is one of the most innovative and adventurous jazz trios working today, seamlessly blending genres and eras into a sound that is as daring as it is delightful. Their music roams freely — from bebop to Argentinian zamba, from Bach-inspired passages to nursery rhymes — all while remaining rooted in the spirit of contemporary jazz.  With a playful sense of humour and a profound love of melody, the David Gordon Trio is a group that constantly pushes boundaries while ensuring every performance is as much fun as it is musically captivating.
