The George Robinson Trio returns to Birdies for one standard set, and a second set inviting local jazz students to join them on stage! Participating students do not need to buy a ticket. Food and drinks will be available to purchase!
Since arriving in Keene in August 2008, George Robinson has immersed himself in the local music community and is actively involved in a variety of musical and educational organizations. In addition to leading several groups that perform across the region, he has served as the drummer of the Keene Jazz Orchestra since 2009. With the KJO, he has performed with world-class musicians such as Gordon Goodwin, Sheila Jordan, Gary Smulyan, and more. As an educator, George has worked with students of all abilities and ages, covering everything from basic skills and techniques to All-State and college audition materials.
After the trio plays from 6-7pm, George invites jazz musicians of all ages to join the stage for an open-mic style jazz jam!
