We are delighted to present trumpet phenom Gabriel Mervine and his Quintet for this series every Friday in February. A longtime Denver favorite, Gabe will be joined by an all-star lineup of local artists for a dynamic set of improvisatory music. A pillar of the Colorado jazz community, Mervine has a long history of collaboration with a wide range of exceptional local artists; for this residency, he will be joined by a star vocalist in addition to a swinging band. This show will feature Marion Powers, as well as Eric Gunnison (piano), Patrick McDevitt (bass), and Braxton Kahn (drums).

Bandleader Gabriel Mervine is deeply rooted in the traditions of Jazz and Classical and is an active contributor to the modern music scene both in Colorado and nationally. Born in Bridgewater, New Jersey, Gabriel began his professional playing career at the age of thirteen. By the time he graduated high school he was already looking at making a career out of playing the trumpet. He has studied with Bobby Shew, Roger Ingram, and Greg Gisbert and quickly gained recognition for as a unique and capable player in any environment. Gabriel has performed with Natalie Cole, Christian McBride, Chie Imaizumi, Terence Blanchard, Russell Malone, Maceo Parker, Fred Wesley, John McNeil, Convergence, Roberta Gambarini, the Motet, and Houston Person.
