Actual Trio at The Back Room

About

Berkeley’s veteran Jazz ensemble The Actual Trio returns to the Back Room for its first performance in over a year. Led by guitarist John Schott (T.J. Kirk, John Zorn, Steven Bernstein), the trio has just released its third CD, entitled “Spires”, of original, spikey, whimsical, groovy, and spontaneous music. Double bassist Dan Seamans (New Klezmer Trio) and drummer John Hanes (Henry Kaiser, Doublestroke, Russian Telegraph) are Schott’s long-time colleagues, forging a unique sound and telepathic trust over fifteen years of playing as a trio.
