The
Randal Harrison Trio
Original Jazz, Appalachian Funk, Tango Nuevo
• Violin
• Bass
• Drums
Harrison’s gutsy, hard driving swing and inclusive approach to composition are the basis for the RH Trio. Said to be “intellectually stimulating ..., but most of all ... entertaining”1 , The Randal Harrison Trio’s repertoire of mostly original pieces draws from the great masters of the American Jazz tradition, Indian Classical music, Appalachian Funk, Gypsy and Klezmer traditions of Eastern Europe and Astor Piazolla’s Tango Nuevo of Argentina.
The core members of the rhythm section include a Blue Note recording artist and a winner of the International Society of Bassists’ Jazz Competition. Aptly described as “brilliant musicians”2, they “lead the swinging fiddler into new space”3 while performing Harrison's compositions of global jazz.
With passion, artistry and humor, Harrison grabs the audience and takes them for a ride. "Randal Harrison dives into his violin while performing"4 and "brings the tale to life"5 !
