About
Brooklyn born Alonzo Wright's interest in music began at the age of eight and he has worked with artists such as Dave Valentin, Bob Franceschini as well as Kenny Garrett, who he worked with as road manager for 4 years. Wright's most recent cd is titled "Menage a Trey", a trio project with Russell Worrell on drums and Kenny Davis on bass.
Greg Randolph of The Republic of Jazz deemed Menage a Trey to be his Favorite CD of 2015. His review states that Wrights tone is reminiscent of Trane but in a much more subdued manner (and I say that as high praise) and with a funky early Grover Washington Jr. flavour on top
I cannot recommend this disc highly enough. Finding an entire CD that flows like a telling story is rare. This is the one....
