Rocky Martin: Fourager / Roman Goron Trio at Seattle Jazz Fellowship

Drummer / composer Rocky Martin presents his project, Forager, or Fourager– a project that could best be described as jazz infused with whatever Martin is delving into, in the moment.

Drummer / composer Rocky Martin presents his project, Forager, or Fourager– a project that could best be described as jazz infused with whatever Martin is delving into, in the moment. The approach is more cultural than musical in some ways, with all life infusing influences in play. The quartet for its part, is a highly skilled lot. Jackson Cotugno, the young and in demand tenor saxophonist, stakes out territory on the front line, with guitarist Martin Budde and bassist Julian Wiseman joining Martin in the rhythm section. 

Young, up and coming pianist Roman Goron makes his debut as a leader, after appearing at SJF with trumpeter Carter Eng. Goron leads a formidable trio with bassist Trevor Ford and drummer Yoshi Stroh, performing originals and selected standards. This is a good opportunity to get to know the eighteen year old pianist, as well as the young musicians of Fourager. A well curated and interesting double bill. https://seattlejazzfellowship.org/events
