Organ Monk Trio: Jazz Ensemble in New York

About Organ Monk Trio

Organ Monk Trio is a New York City jazz organ group heard at Arthur’s Tavern, working in the organ-trio tradition while leaving room for free-jazz detours. Their sets are built around the push and pull between written themes and open improvisation, with the organ handling both harmony and bass in real time. The playing favors momentum and close listening over polish, letting grooves dissolve and re-form as the room changes. In a small club setting, the format keeps the music direct and physical.
