8:30pm.Trumpeter Riley Mulherkar is best known as a founding member of The Westerlies, a New York-based brass quartet of West Coast expats who play a mix of jazz, modern classical and folk compositions, high on tunefulness. This deep admiration for the American songbook can also be heard all over Riley, “one of the best debut records to come out in a long, long time” (DownBeat). Described as “über hip, modern yet timeless” (DownBeat) Mulherkar is a 2020 recipient of Lincoln Center’s Emerging Artist Award for his work as “an original bandleader, composer, arranger, educator, community activist and advocate for jazz and the arts.” Riley serves as Artistic Director for Jazz at Joye in Aiken and is a faculty member of The College of Performing Arts at The New School. Mulherkar is an Edwards Artist and performs on Edwards trumpets.
