Colvin Concerts: Christopher L. Wilson Trio
Christopher Lucas Wilson is a hard swingin' pianist originally from metropolitan Detroit, transplanted for a decade to Los Angeles, and now living in Chicago. His music is highly influenced by hard swing, bebop, and the rich history of jazz piano trios. His focus is the uplifting nature of swing and the beauty behind the jazz piano trio. His arrangements are thoughtful and his music contagious...
Christopher Wilson - piano
Isaiah Spencer - drums
Alex Austin - bass
“There are players who skate more, players with more driving rhythms and more ‘original’ versions. For listeners thirsty for ‘notes...like hoisted water/raveling off a bucket,’ for the generous lyricism that left the planet with Hank Jones and Tommy Flanagan, Christopher Wilson is a reminder that our musical well is deep and fresh, that a new generation of players can still lead us to it.” ---Michael Lauchlan, author of Trumbull Ave
