About

Join Mike Casey and his Trio at The Philadelphia Museum of Art for a special show celebrating his new album, Stay Surprising! A unique jazz group not only in their musical approach but in instrumentation as well, The Mike Casey Trio features Mike on saxophones, Matt Dwonszyk on acoustic bass, and Corey Garcia on drums – three of the brightest young rising stars in jazz.

Performing modern original music and creative re-imaginations of jazz classics like Count Basie's Shiny Stockings & Nat King Cole's Unforgettable and pop songs like The Beatles' Norwegian Wood and Queen's We Are The Champions with power, passion, and purpose, the Mike Casey Trio appeals to both jazz aficionados and casual music fans....
