Ryan Truesdell & The Gil Evans Project
Jeff joins Grammy award-winning composer and producer Ryan Truesdell for his most recent vision-come-to-life: Centennial, the highly anticipated Gil Evans Project. Truesdell’s vision was to bring to light some of the lesser-known works of Gil Evans, the celebrated mid-century jazz pianist, composer, bandleader and frequent collaborator with Miles Davis (Sketches of Spain and Miles Ahead). Truesdell discovered more than 40 works of Evans’ from the 1940s through the 1980s that were never before recorded or released. The resulting record garnered three Grammy nominations, winning one. Truesdell leads his 22-piece band in the live performance of the project.
