the 3tet The 3tet is an instrumental, straight ahead jazz trio from the greater triangle area of North Carolina. Their material includes an even mix of innovative originals and stylized standards. Styles range from straight ahead swing, bop, and ballads, to bossanova and samba. Their influences include Sonny Rollins, Kenny Burrell, Charles Mingus, etc. They are versetile jazz musicians, and can play to nearly any room or venue. Below is a review from the owner of the 3tet's favorite venue: 'Three guys playing jazz with various other musicians. Two get together in another group and the other is playing elsewhere. The three meet up, play a little and discover the magic that ONLY jazz can conjure forth! All the ingredients in just the right proportions producing the most delicious, most incredible, or as Bill and Ted would say, "the most excellent" music! Three incredible jazz musicians! This is NOT B.S. jazz! This is the real thing; smooth, takes you places, sets a groove and keeps you moving!' - C. Morgan
