GRAMMY-nominated multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter, and bandleader Joe Troop returns to his favorite hometown venue, The Fruit, for another thrilling residency series. Once a week for the first three weeks of December, Joe will showcase a different ensemble featuring a rotating cast of musicians and a range of musical styles.
For the finale of his residency series, Joe's thrilled to unveil new songs from a forthcoming concept album called “Whirlwind."
Clad with his long-awaited custom electric jazz banjo, he's curated an unexpected ensemble featuring flute (Rebecca Kleinmann), viola (Bailey Newman), drums (Gaston Reggio) and bass (Ramon Garcia) to bring this new material to life.
Drawing from a kaleidoscope of influences - Latin jazz to R&B, candombe to bluegrass, classical music to samba, rock and roll - this group will surely keep you on the edge of your seat.
Stick around after their hour-long set to meet the musicians!
