The Trio

Take two parts Gershwin, two parts Cole Porter, add a dash of Tom Waits and a splash of Rhythm & Blues … shake, stir and …voila! You’ve got theTrio, a cool, refreshing cocktail with plenty of swing.

TheTrio explores its love of the all-time standards made famous by performers like Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald and Ray Charles, and brings that love to the contemporary work of people such as Tom Waits, Elvis Costello, Leonard Cohen and, um …Kiss.

TheTrio is made up of Richard Lewis on vocals and percussion, Bryan Karahasan on guitar and Andreas Albanis on double bass.

The three musicians (or four) perform as one well-oiled unit, diggin’ their way through the night (or afternoon).

Also available: theTrio+sax (just add the sultry sax of Peter Mitchell).

Listen to some of the Trio's Songs:
Beyond the Sea
Early in the Morning
Fly me to the Moon
I've got you under my skin
My baby Just cares for me
Sunny Afternoon
Wonderful
Temptation

Listen to some of the Trio with Sax Songs:
Dont get around much anymore
I was made for loving you
Route 66
There will never be another you
