Matthew Shipp Trio is a boundary-pushing jazz ensemble led by pianist Matthew Shipp, known for his distinctive voice in avant-garde and free jazz. Shipp emerged in the 1990s New York jazz scene and quickly gained recognition for his bold, expressive playing style and innovative compositions. The trio format has long been a central vehicle for Shipp to explore his ideas, often featuring collaborations with longtime associates like bassist Michael Bisio and drummer Newman Taylor Baker.
With albums like World Construct, The Conduct of Jazz, and Piano Song, the Matthew Shipp Trio demonstrates a dynamic balance between structure and improvisation, tradition and experimentation. Their music is deeply rooted in the jazz idiom but constantly pushes its limits, making them a significant and influential force in contemporary jazz.
