JACK MACKLIN TRIO

The Jack Macklin Trio is a bright light in the growing community of improvised music in Nashville, and feature’s world class improvisers. The Trio will uniquely navigate their way through popular songs ranging from the present to the 1950’s, as well as sprinkle in original material as well. Macklin will be backed by double-bassist Parker Kaplan and drummer Ryan Brasley.

For a thoughtful artist like Macklin, who will research and connect with a project before debuting the final product, this is a liberating experience to connect with a band on a deep level. There is a sense of spontaneity, and discovery whenever this group sets foot on the bandstand.

During his time in Chicago, Macklin has been heralded by WGN Chicago, Chicago Reader magazine, and Chicago Jazz Magazine for his continuous work to push the music forward, and manifest a community around the Trio. Macklin is thrilled to share his developments with his trio, and expand upon his goal of creating a band that goes beyond genres to connect with the audience on a personal level, to have a compelling experience that leaves the listener wanting more.
