“Over the last four decades, trio format is John Scofield’s favorite mode of  expression. 2023’s incarnation of the John Scofield Trio is ready for global touring  and an October 2023 double CD release -Uncle John's Band- on ECM records. It  features Scofield on guitar, Vicente Archer on bass and Bill Stewart on drums. The  music is intricate, personal and complex highlighting a repertoire of Scofield  compositions and jazz standards along with material ranging from Bob Dylan to  Miles Davis. The three weave their sound through tight jazz standards and savvy  original compositions, playing music that embodies the spirit that has kept jazz  vigorous and visceral from the start. “I love to make real jazz-improvising  statements in live situations with two of my favorite musicians,” Scofield says.  “It’s challenging. You don’t rely on arrangements as much as the intuitive way we  play together. You rely on good playing knowing that there’s no safety net  involved. We're three musicians with a special synergy that unfolds between us.  It’s impossible to judge your own work completely, but I think the Trio format is  always some of my best playing. We hook up as a group and it brings us to  satisfying places. "  --- Seats are assigned by date of purchase.
