The Dave Fleschner Trio:

◦ Very inventive and swingin’ – Mike Finnigan
◦ Dave is . . killin’ it on there. The songs are great! – Curtis Salgado

Dave, Dan Gildea and Charlie Doggett have been making music together for decades. This trio begins with the vehicles for improvisation – a range of original tunes from Dave’s catalogue, as well as a variety of jazz classics. Well versed in the old school organ trio tradition of Jimmy Smith, Jack McDuff, Groove Holmes and Don Padderson, the Dave Fleschner trio has a modern approach to this canon, drawing inspiration from artists as varied as Herbie Hancock and Ornette Coleman. You’ll find funk, soul, blues and world music influences in their special blend of groove-based improvisation.
