Perhaps best known as long-time pianist for Lyle Lovett, Tim Ray has appeared on over 70 recordings and performed with pop music icons Aretha Franklin, Bonnie Raitt, Jane Siberry and Soul Asylum. He performs regularly with top jazz musicians as well, including Gary Burton, Esperanza Spalding, Phil Woods, Scott Hamilton, Dave Douglas, Brian Blade, Lewis Nash and Rufus Reid to name a few. His classical credits include solo performances and concerts with Gunther Schuller, the Boston Pops, the Boston Modern Orchestra Project, and the Boston Classical Orchestra.
Downbeat Magazine called Jason Palmer one of the “Top 25 trumpeters of the Future” back in 2007. Since then he has recorded three CDs under his own name and performed as a sideman on over a dozen others. Jason has worked with jazz icons Roy Haynes, Herbie Hancock, Jimmy Smith, Wynton Marsalis and the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra, Ravi Coltrane, Geri Allen, Patrice Rushen, Clarence Penn, Jeff Ballard, Kenny Barron, Phil Woods, Common (hip-hop icon), Roy Hargrove, and Lewis Nash. Applying his trumpeting skills in a new medium, Jason is the lead actor in Guy and Madeline on a Park Bench, written and directed by Damien Chazelle. The movie received critical acclaim after premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2009.
Drummer Steve Langone is a mainstay on the performing and recording circuit around Boston. Steve honed his percussive skills during a seven-year gig in a Brazilian nightclub while still a student at Berklee College of Music. He has performed with top jazz players like Jerry Bergonzi, George Garzone, Victor Mendoza, and Luciana Sousa. He appears on over 30 CDs, three under his own name.
