Alex Anest Organ Trio – January 31, 2025

The Alex Anest Organ Trio is dedicated to finding exciting repertoire for the classic combination of guitar, organ, and drums. Original tunes as well as works by the likes of Duke Pearson, Emily Remler, Ernie Krivda, and Herbie Hancock have found their way into the setlist. The current lineup includes Jim Alfredson, Clif Metcalf, or Jordan Anderson on organ and Gayelynn McKinney or David Ward on Drums. The focus is on working together and connecting with the audience through improvisation, groove, and feel. Music should be fun to listen to as well as to play, and this trio is all about enjoying the music. The Alex Anest Organ Trio has lately been performing at clubs and festivals around Michigan and Ohio including dates in Detroit, Ann Arbor, Lansing, Kalamazoo, Grand Rapids, Toledo, Cleveland, Columbus and Dayton.

The band has released three live recordings, including one at Trinity House.
