"[Wil Blades] is the future to carry on the legend, the legacy of the organ." – Dr. Lonnie Smith
With a steady base as one-third of the renowned experimental jazz trio Medeski, Martin, & Wood, drummer Billy Martin has become one of the most forward-thinking, innovative, and influential percussionists in the music world. DownBeat critics poll winner in the Rising Star category, organist Wil Blades has become the San Francisco Bay Area's first call keyboardists'. Blades keeps to the traditional sounds of Jimmy Smith, Larry Young, and Groove Holmes, while creating a more personal, modern sound. The duo creates a musical dialogue that is at once danceable and highly improvisational.
