Step back in time with the Matt Cahill Combo as they artfully recreate the golden era of the Nat King Cole Trio. Journey through the smoky bars and intimate clubs of the 1940s, experiencing the authentic sounds of a stripped back jazz trio, skilfully distilled and performed just as the legendary King Cole Trio did in their heyday. Drawing inspiration from the masterful guitar work of Oscar Moore, Matt has handpicked a selection of iconic tracks from the Nat Cole Trio’s memorable recordings with Decca and Capitol Records. Let the classics like “Too Marvelous for Words”, “Exactly Like You”, “It’s Only A Paper Moon”, and “(Get Your Kicks on) Route 66” sweep you into a nostalgic trance. Join us for a night of timeless jazz and tribute to one of the greatest trios that ever graced the stage.
