Three veteran jazz virtuosos join forces for the first time as pianist Bill Cunliffe, bassist John Patitucci, and drummer Vinnie Colaiuta for a high-spirited, vigorously swinging standard session titled, simply, Trio – after all, with three names like those on the marquee, no further embellishment is needed.

TRIO, due out February 19, 2021, via Le Coq Records, came together with the help of executive producers Piero Pata and Andy James came up with the idea in the middle of a studio session, making the exhilarating chemistry and dynamic interplay all the more remarkable. Cunliffe has become something of a house arranger and musical director for many of the newly-launched imprint’s projects, and Patitucci and Colaiuta have quickly become part of the Le Coq family. It was at label founders/producers Piero Pata and Andy James urging that the trio let loose in Hollywood’s storied Capitol Studios without a script.
