Show Notes
Drew Gress' biography reads like a who's who of the jazz world, including collaboration with Tim Berne, Ravi Coltrane, Uri Caine, John Hollenbeck, and countless others. He has appeared on over 140 recordings, 4 of which have received Grammy nominations.
In this conversation, which was prompted by Richard Ivy, a former student of Drew's, we discuss many topics, including:
- Drew's in-depth interview with Pablo Held and the many areas they explore
- similarities to jazz and birdwatching (a pastime of Drew's)
- spending time and working with Gary Peacock
Enjoy!
