As a group, they have collaborated with Grammy-nominated violinist Sara Caswell, tenor saxophonist Laura Leguia, and opened for the Joel Frahm Trio at the Alias Winter Jazz Festival in 2024.The name Killdeer Trio comes from the “Killdeer” bird, commonly found in upstate NY — the region each member was raised, and where the band was formed. Their music is deeply influenced by the rural environment in which it was conceived, reflecting both its quiet serenity and constant invitation to explore the surrounding unknown. Their music is evocative, dynamic, and engaging for listeners of any background.   Killdeer Trio's debut self-titled album was released May 11th, 2023, and is available on Bandcamp and all streaming platforms. Underground is their second full-length album. It was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Andris Balins at Dry Hill Studios in Oneonta, NY, between Dec '24 and Jan '25.
