AIR AND SPACE TRIO

"I was completely knocked out. [Jo Lawry] has an incredibly pure voice with faultless intonation."—Jason Crane, The Jazz Session

Fulbright winner Jo Lawry combines her silky voice with the hip beats of percussionist James Shipp, and the blazing chops of Eastman graduate and trumpeter Stephanie Richards, fusing folk with jazz to create the signature sounds of the Air and Space Trio.

Our thanks to The Honorable Leroy G. Comrie for making this concert possible.
