Michael CulverJazz Trio - available through Kelly Productions

This lively, upbeat, yet unobtrusive and mellow trio features the multi-faceted Michael Culver on the warm, bell-like tones of the vibraphone, in smooth combination with veteran players Jim Gonzales on guitar and bassist Stan Poplin. Together they play a fun, sophisticated blend of solid, straight ahead Jazz standards and light pop favorites, including standards from the Broadway stage (Rogers & Hart, Cole Porter, George Gershwin) and songs by the great Jazz artists (Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Louis Armstrong, Miles Davis, Benny Goodman, Johnny Mercer).

The string instruments furnish a warm texture for featuring the vibraphone, providing the perfect ambiance for private parties, weddings, and corporate events. Let these exceptional artists bring America's only original art form to your celebration. Also available as a duo (just vibes and guitar.)

Michael is also a fine pianist, and, for a change of pace, can substitute piano for vibes for a few numbers or for the entire evening, if you prefer.
