The TV Trio

Art Lande (piano, drums)
Eric Gunnison (piano, drums)
Kent McLagan (bass)

The TV Trio dates back to the 1990s when they played at the West End Tavern in Boulder, CO. After a hiatus as a band, the trio started getting together regularly again in 2023 and continue to thoroughly enjoy these sessions. Everybody brings some tunes to play, and Eric and Art each play half the time on drums and half on piano. Now it is time to share these satisfying journeys with the listening community.

All three of these musicians are well known to jazz aficionados in Colorado and beyond. The list of Who's Who in Jazz doesn’t begin to explain all the iconic artists who have shared stage and recordings with each of the TV Trio members as well as great bands they have played with. They are clearly part of the living history of the music they have dedicated their lives to, as is clearly evidenced in their creativity and their ability to connect with and develop the music.

TV Trio will play the repertoire of the Great American Songbook, little heard pieces from international jazz composers, and original compositions. Come and listen to this intriguing trio — two bands in one!

The Art Lande Quartet is comprised of highly experienced musicians who have developed distinctive voices on their instruments and know how to listen and connect to each other. The focus of this project is Art's UnStandards — reworking music familiar to the ear and bringing it to a fresh, present moment while honoring the history. Mixing meters, re-harmonizations, adding new sections and changing the whole mood of these old songs are some of the ways that Art fabulized the music during his months in Arizona last winter.

Art and Bruce go back 50 years playing in Rubisa Patrol while living in Berkeley in the 70s. They also shared in the Russian Dragon Band 20 years later, Poulet while in Europe and many other projects. Recording wise, they can be heard on Bruce's Big City Magic, and Standard Transmission (with Peter Barshay) as well as Shapeshifter and The Silver Fox (also with Peter Barshay), plus the recently released Spirits with Paul McCandless on Blue Coast Records. Peter Barshay has been the Bay Area's premier bassist for a long time and he, Bruce and Dillon Vado have been part of several seasons at Jazz Camp West. Art also connects with Dillon at The Jazzschool in Berkeley, and they have shared music many times at Art Boutiki and in Colorado. Dillon has established himself as a composer, teacher and band leader in the Bay Area in the last decade, playing both vibes and drums.

This band promises to bring both surprises and consistency to these performances of new music in familiar packages. Come and taste the flavors.
