Trevor Ford Sextet at Seattle Jazz Fellowship

Joining the bassist will be rhythm section mates in pianist Dylan Hayes and drummer Sutton Marley. Guitarist Martin Budde, saxophonist Alex Dugdale and trombonist Beserat Tafesse complete this all-star gathering. A good night for Ford to step up to the front line at full speed! https://seattlejazzfellowship.org/
