Sunset Jazz At Newport 2017 – The Jeff Hamilton Trio

Downbeat Magazine writer Jeffrey Lien states, “In the world of jazz drumming, very few can match the virtuosic qualities of Jeff Hamilton.” “Watching other drummers study Jeff’s technique and talents is a case of admiration and acclaim intersecting envy.” Together for the past 17 years, this celebrated trio will feature award-winning pianist Tamir Hendelman and respected bassist Christoph Luty, both of whom are members of the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra. Tamir is also the first call pianist for Barbara Streisand, in addition to having performed with John Clayton, Harry Allen, Tierney Sutton and Rickey Woodard among many others. Christoph has recorded with Milt Jackson, John Pizzarelli & Diana Krall. This performance will be in high demand, so be sure to reserve your tickets early!
