Hailed by the New York Times as a “post-bop guitarist with a taste for the ultramodern," Ricardo Grilli takes the stage at the Vortex Jazz Club for the first time. Backed by the commanding, inventive voice of bassist Ferg Ireland and the three-time Grammy-nominated drive of drummer Jason Brown, this debut performance promises an evening of sophisticated compositions, improvisation, stellar chemistry and energy.

"... a post-bop guitarist with a sideline interest in the cosmos and a taste for the ultramodern." - Nate Chinen, New York Times "...Grilli’s considerable chops are in full effect in each setting... This is an admirable outing by a new face on the scene." - Bill Milkowski, Downbeat Magazine "Excellent, can’t stop listening!" - Steve Greenlee, Jazz Times
