Aside from being one of the principal innovators of modern jazz guitar, John Scofield is a creative artist of an even rarer sort: a stylistic chameleon who has forged a consistent, rock-solid aesthetic identity. Looking to commemorate his 73rd year, Scofield has penned a collection of new compositions and reformed the swinging group – formerly Combo 66 – to tour the music.
Rising star Gerald Clayton is an obvious choice on piano, an instrument central to the tunes. The connection between Scofield and drummer Bill Stewart strengthens as the decades pass.
It was Stewart who introduced bassist Vicente Archer to the project eight years ago.
Scofield is thrilled with the group and in addition to the musical combustion, especially enjoys the inter-generational quality – seventies, fifties and forties represented! Scofield will close 2025 with this band on tour.
A triple Grammy award winning artist with fan bases in many camps and 50plus recordings to his credit as a leader, SCOFIELD has expressed himself in the vernacular of bebop, blues, jazz-funk, organ jazz, acoustic chamber jazz, electronically tinged groove music, jam band style and orchestral ensembles with ease and enthusiasm.
He has shared the stage and studio in the company of Miles Davis, Tony Williams, Jim Hall, Ron Carter, Herbie Hancock, Joe Henderson, Dave Holland, Charlie Haden, Pat Metheny, Jack DeJohnette, Joe Lovano, Brad Mehldau, Eddie Harris, John Mayer, Phil Lesh, Aaron Neville, Mavis Staples and MMW among many music legends.
