In their debut duo release "Boardwalk Waltz" E. Shawn Qaissaunee (guitar) and Jim Ridl (piano) have a relaxed, engaging and fun musical conversation through an eclectic selection of their original songs.
Elements of jazz, rock, country, swing and much more make this trio an exciting, engaging and eclectic ensemble.
Solid performers on their own, Jason Fraticelli (bass), E. Shawn Qaissaunee (guitar) and Matt Scarano (drums) come together to create a fiery mix of improvisational interplay. It is easy to hear the intense amount of fun this solid trio is having on this session. Guests Greg Riley on sax and John Swana on EVI jump in effortlessly and ride the musical wave.
