Irwin Hall has returned to his roots after nearly 15 years of traveling the world! Growing up in NJ in the last generation of Newark’s famed Organ Jazz circuit, the Irwin Hall Organ Trio is an unmistakable tour-de-force. From explosive funk and dripping blues, to deep swinging straight ahead and lush ballads, the band has crafted the perfect mix of Jazz, Blues, Soul and Gospel.
