John Pizzarelli

John Pizzarelli - The son of the fine guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli, John Pizzarelli has become a popular attraction, singing swing era standards in a charming voice and developing into a fine guitarist himself. Taught guitar by his father, John sat in with Bucky and Zoot Sims at a 1980 concert and has played duets with the older Pizzarelli on an occasional basis ever since. He worked with Tony Monte's trio starting in 1986 and then in 1990 started his own solo career, usually heading drumless trios. John Pizzarelli's voice has developed with time, displaying both charm and self-effacing humor, and his regular group is capable of playing swing tunes at rather rapid tempos. He has recorded as a leader for Chesky, Stash and Novus, and in 1997 appeared in the Broadway production of Johnny Mercer songs called Dream. Meets the Beatles was issued the following year, trailed in 1999 by P.S. Mr. Cole; Pizzarelli next resurfaced in early 2000 with Kisses in the Rain and most recently, the brilliant Bossa Nova and Knowing You. -- Scott Yanow, All Music Guide

John's wife, Jessica Molaskey's has three CDs on which John and members of the Trio appear on. You will find them swingin', jazzy cool and charming. John and his Trio are featured on all three and set the mood for the musical adventure. These CDs are all quite enjoyable and should be considered for any collection in the jazz idiom.
