Forged in a cauldron of raging, inspiring contemporary jazz, the Jeremy Ledbetter Trio pushes the boundaries of jazz and world music, providing an undiluted display of rampaging energy and captivating musicianship.

In a stirring follow-up to their 2018 debut Got a Light? (“a controlled explosion of big ideas and compelling musical storytelling”), the Jeremy Ledbetter Trio returns with Gravity: a high-powered set of new original music, brimming with fresh ideas and the jaw-dropping virtuosity and musicality, with Jeremy joined by Grammy-winning drummer Larnell Lewis of Snarky Puppy and renowned electric bassist Rich Brown, who offer the perfect counterpart to Ledbetter’s iconoclastic energy at the piano. This is a group very much at home tackling intricate lines and rhythms, drawing from jazz, rock, funk and varied Latin genres.
