FROM NEW YORK: ORGANIST PAT BIANCHI Cover

ONE NIGHT ONLY! Organist Pat Bianchi has established himself as one of the premier organists on the international scene today. Bianchi is the winner of Downbeat Magazine’s 2016 rising star poll, Hot House 2019 poll and nominee of the 2024 Jazz Journalists Association as Keyboardist of the year. Known for fearlessly taking the jazz organ into new and exciting directions, Pat’s playing blends tradition with forward-thinking creativity, drawing inspiration from mentors Dr. Lonnie Smith and Joey DeFrancesco. With a career that includes touring with Steely Dan, performing alongside jazz icons Pat Martino and Lou Donaldson, and leading his own acclaimed trio, Pat’s artistry is unmatched! His command of the instrument, harmonic prowess, rhythmic intensity and versatility are rivaled by few. Bianchi’s nine albums as bandleader, together with over 35 credits as a featured sideman and his Grammy Nomination have solidified his place at the forefront of today’s Jazz Organists.
