Possessing a wide color palette, the Joshua Espinoza Trio explores shimmering harmonies and shifting orchestral contours with the aesthetic of a chamber ensemble as much as a jazz trio. Influenced by artists as disparate as Herbie Hancock, bassist Avishai Cohen, Gerald Clayton, and composer Maurice Ravel, the Joshua Espinoza Trio takes listeners on a journey for the ears and mind alike. Through their genre-bending approach to composing, they’ve built a cross-generational audience of diverse backgrounds bound together by their love of good music. Their debut album Journey Into Night was released in June 2019, and their sophomore Songs from Yesterday in September 2023. Joshua Espinoza (piano), Kirs Monson (bass), Jaron Lamar Davis (drums).
