Comprising three bandleaders, the Julien Wilson Trio are rarely able to get together, but after more than a decade together, it is always magical when they do. With Stephen Magnusson (guitars) and Stephen Grant (piano accordian) collaborating with Wilson (saxophones & clarinet), this unique ensemble has a distinctive sound and approach that has produced three acclaimed albums. Their first album was Trio-Live (2007). Their last album, Swailing (available from www.lionsharecords.com.) saw them expanding their sound with the addition of electric guitar, moog guitar, bass clarinet and soprano sax. Their October 2015 concert for the MJC at The Salon, MRC, sold out in advance, so bookings are recommended.
“Ravishingly beautiful music…enchanting lyricism…the epitome of understatement”
