Bio:  Ad Astra Latin Jazz Trio performs a seamless blend of traditional Son, Rhumba, and Nuyorican styles with contemporary jazz. Led by percussionist Brian Randall, with Roger Lachapel on keys and Bryan Thomas on bass, the trio draws inspiration from Latin luminaries like Michel Camilo and Los Van Van, infusing them with elements evocative of Chick Corea and McCoy Tyner. Rooted in these traditions, the trio propels Latin jazz forward, honoring its cultural origins.
