About this Event
FRIDAY, MAY 05 -PATRICK BARTLEY TRIO
The Patrick Bartley Trio is a special unit formed from a lifelong bond between Patrick and two of his closest friends and earliest musical collaborators – Russell Hall on bass, and Stefan Klein, Jr. on drums.
After starting their first band together back in high school and not playing again for nearly 11 years, the group reunited in 2022 to make a fiery comeback album full of the same passion, energy, and naivete they once had in their younger years. This album, “FIRST SONG”, is a true homage to the early dreams and visions these players had, with all compositions being originals composed when they were in high school. It’s a sound filled with reverence and respect for the masters that have inspired them, combined with the added attitude of rebellion against the musical status quo. With new life breathed into these old dreams, Patrick, Russell, and Stefan all dedicate themselves to breaking new ground in jazz and taking the music to even higher levels.
Patrick Bartley, Jr. (b. 1993) is a GRAMMY-nominated saxophonist, multi-instrumentalist, and bandleader from Hollywood, Florida who is known for his boundless versatility, virtuosic technique and expressive vocal-like sound.
Since moving to New York City, Patrick has performed and recorded with some of the greatest musical masters in the world, including Wynton Marsalis, Jon Batiste, Emmet Cohen, Larry Grenadier, Steve Miller, Herbie Hancock, Louis Hayes, Carole King, Jimmy Cobb, Marquis Hill, Bobby Sanabria, Marcus Printup, and many others. Patrick is currently most known for his appearances on the multi-million-viewed "Live from Emmet's Place" YouTube sessions (namely, "After You've Gone", etc.), as well as for starting the J-MUSIC Ensemble, a band dedicated to examining the world of modern Japanese music through the lens of jazz.
Since its inception, J-MUSIC has garnered millions of views and hundreds of thousands of fans worldwide and has led to Patrick connecting and working with some of the greatest names in modern Japanese music, such as Sayaka Yamamoto, sasakure.UK, Donna Burke, Awich, Miho Hazama, and more. Patrick now resides in Tokyo, Japan, where he plans to continue building his community through music performance and educational efforts.
