This incredible trio consists of saxophonist extraordinaire Jeff Coffin, the virtuosic Jordan Perlson on drums, and the legendary Viktor Krauss on upright bass. Look for their self-titled debut recording to drop in late 2023!

Coffin/Perlson/Krauss came together in 2020 when Jeff, Jordan, and Viktor would assemble every couple weeks and make music together in Coffin’s home studio. They have recorded (audio and video) a self-titled, mind blowing project. The musicianship of these three artists is not to be denied and they are each deeply woven into the rich musical history of the 20th and 21st centuries.

JEFF COFFIN:
Jeff Coffin is a globally recognized saxophonist, composer, educator, and is a member of the legendary U.S. rock group, Dave Matthews Band. You may also know him from his 14 years, and 3 Grammy Awards with the genre-defying Bela Fleck & the Flecktones. Coffin was also nominated for a Grammy Award in 2023 for Best Contemporary Instrumental Recording for his own Between Dreaming And Joy. Jeff fronts numerous groups when not touring with DMB and has released 20+ solo recordings on Ear Up Records.

JORDAN PERLSON:
Drummer Jordan Perlson is one of the most dynamic and catalytic musicians you will hear. Transplanted from NYC to Nashville, Tennessee in 2016, Jordan remains an integral part of a wide international music scene. From cutting edge music innovators like Becca Stevens, Snarky Puppy, Banda Magda, to progressive musicians Adrian Belew, Echolyn, Kaki King, fusion megastar Hiromi, jazz legends Seamus Blake, Gary Burton, David Liebman, folk heroes Alison Brown, Missy Raines, reggae giants Matisyahu, or Trevor Hall, Jordan has become a well known and sought after force in these many musical circles.
