"Pianist Rick Roe is joined by drummer Nate Winn and bassist Robert Hurst for his 2024 release, Tribute: The Music of Gregg Hill, a heartfelt homage to Lansing-based composer Gregg Hill. The trio morphs twelve compelling tracks by Hill that explore bop jazz from swinging romps to caressing ballads and improvised lyricism.
Rick Roe and his trio celebrate the depth and variety of Gregg Hill’s compositions inTribute: The Music of Gregg Hill. The recording displays the trio's symbiotic rapport, showing that jazz is an evolving conversation among its musicians, jamming and riffing off-the-cuff, moving in a spontaneous fashion, and forming harmonious integration that constructs lyrical patterns."
