Breiner trio smallWell it’s been a lot longer than a week since I put up a new sample from a Madison jazz artist, but I started this series with that title and I’m going to stick with it. Patrick has been featured here before as a solo artist and with his New York Trio. This week we have Patrick with his new Madison based trio. They will be playing their first gig 9:30 tonight at Magnus, and following that up next Friday with a performance at the Isthmus Jazz Festival.

This is a Steve Lacy tune entitled, “The Bath.” The trio is:

Patrick Breiner – Tenor Saxophone
Michael Brenneis – Drums
John Christensen – Bass


Patrick has a bio and more tunes up on his website. If you want to get inside his head a bit you must read this previous blog post by him, a great piece of writing that reveals the drive behind Madison’s most exciting sax player.
