Read Full Biography

Few musicians in jazz have had as wide a range of influence as has the guitarist Bill Frisell. His conception, part jazz, part rock, part country and part free improvisation, has changed the way music sounds. From his early work with the avant guardist John Zorn, through his own beautiful early works on ECM, and into his deeply felt explorations into Americana, it’s been clear that Frisell is a special, gestural player. His work with the jazz drummer Paul Motian and the saxophonist Joe Lovano, is a milestone in jazz guitar. And the trio he’s bringing, with Thomas Morgan on bass and Rudy Royston on drums, is special, with Mr. Morgan an improvising musician with no real peers.
