Mike Casey Trio at Passages Gallery

About

"The Mike Casey Trio is a unique jazz group not only in their musical approach and style, but in instrumentation as well. The band features saxophone, acoustic bass, and drums. The absence of guitar or piano, which is typically found in a jazz group, gives the band a very distinctive sound. A typical set features original music with some jazz classics/standards thrown into the mix (re-arranged in their own signature style, of course). The unique combination of the musicians, the instrumentation, the songs, and artistic vision give the group a vibe that is at once earthy and accessible, yet mature, refined, exciting, and upbeat
