The Ryan Davis Trio plays classic jazz and Great American Songbook selections at Parker Jazz Club with special guest Glenn Rexach.
The Ryan Davis Trio play Parker Jazz Club on Wednesday, September 2, with special guest Glenn Rexach joining them for the night. It's a mid-week date in Austin, and the set stays in familiar territory: classic jazz and selections from the Great American Songbook.
If you're not sure what that means in practice, the Great American Songbook is the collection of jazz standards from the early to mid-twentieth century—the songs by Gershwin, Porter, and Berlin that most jazz musicians return to. Those are the tunes you'll recognize even if you don't know the titles, the ones that have been played in a thousand different ways over the decades. The trio builds their set around that material, and the addition of Glenn Rexach as a guest means there's an extra voice in the mix for the evening.
