Winter Jazz returns to the Parrish for a performance and CD Release by the Gregory Lewis Organ Monk Trio, co-presented with Hamptons Jazz Fest.
Virtuoso organist, pianist, and composer Gregory Lewis is a highly accomplished mainstay in New York City’s jazz, blues, and funk scenes. Deeply committed to discovering his musical language through specific jazz techniques, the NYC native has said, “I’m creating music for the next generation of jazz innovators.” Lewis, who uses the Hammond B3 organ’s enormous sonic range to playfully turn traditional jazz melodies and notes into harmonic insights, was named one of the “Top 5 Rising Stars” on organ on DownBeat’s 64th Annual Critic’s Poll in 2016.
Friday Nights are made possible, in part, by The Corcoran Group.
