Even as they mine the most familiar tunes, each musician's effortless attentiveness to the other guarantees a vital and spontaneous approach to music. In their short history, Go Trio has secured multiple performances at leading jazz venues (Deer Head Inn, Chris' Jazz Cafe, Trumpets, Twins, Lafayette Bar), establishments featuring jazz (Allentown Art Museum, Sands Casino, Porter's Pub, Starfish Brasserie, Shula's Steakhouse, Setta Luna), and music festivals (Musikfest, Lafayette College, LPGA).

RECENT LISTENER COMMENTS

“Mesmerizing, beautiful sound!! Would definitely
love to hear these guys perform again.”

"A good band."

"The trio is reminiscent, in sonic texture, of a combination of Keith Jarrett and Bill Evans, with a slant toward playing mainly standards in an advanced manner
(the pianist often played in a different key than at the beginning of a tune and often different than that of the bass player). The music did swing... but the swing was quite cerebral, yet accessible. It was beautiful playing all around."

"Mr Gough's creative twists on the standards led to an
interesting game of 'Name That Tune.'"

"I thought you guys were great and I'd like to get a recording of you."

"Just a brief note to let you know how much we enjoyed last nite at Twins Jazz Club. It was a new experience for us, and it was plain terrific. We'll root for your continued success, which we are certain will happen. Keep up the good work."

"Great music! Wow! I think the pianist is FANTASTIC!"

"It is my pleasure to know such amazing artists."

"GO GO GO, you guys are awesome!"

"Just a fast note to say how much we all enjoyed the gig last night...
you have a wonderful trio!... enjoyed the great bass lines and solos...
the drummer complimented the music perfectly never overplaying,
and the pianist knocked everyone out... hope to catch you down the road."

"'Mercy, Mercy, Mercy' made me want to dance!
It's all great and I'm sure they will love you!"
