The Jacob Szekely Trio has been steadily building a national following since the release of its debut album and recent shows have been standing room only at The Blue Whale (Los Angeles), The Sound Room (Oakland), Rockwood Music Hall (NY), and at the New Directions Festival (Ithaca NY). This trio has created a unique musical tapestry that incorporates the richness of jazz improvisation, the structure of classical music, and the edginess of rock into its own alchemy that expands the sonic culture of the cello, which Szekely calls “Rock Chamber Jazz." The music is rich and stunning, but melodic and easily adaptable for audiences.
The band has received airplay on KCRW (Los Angeles), PRI, and New Sounds on WNYC (New York) and has been featured in the LA Weekly, Berkeleyside, LA Jazz Scene, Jazz Times, The Strad, Strings Magazine, and The International Review of Music.
