SHAKE it with the Stanton Moore Trio and "Carnival"

January 23, 2017 Ilana Kalish
IMG_1547.JPG

James Singleton, Stanton Moore and David Torkanowsy in Japan

Drummer, Stanton Moore   is fer REAL.  Born and raised in New Orleans, Moore has been inhaling sparks of creativity since his first breathes.  Marinating in funky, soulful, spirit throughout his lifetime, Moore radiates electricity, excitement and LIFE.  Lucky for us, it's 100% audible and the best kind of contagious.  

His career is the definition of diverse meandering from Jazz to Alt-Rock with a few stops in the Heavy Metal shop.  Like I said... Stanton is Fer. Real. 

Of course, his Trio is equally gifted (Click their names and get-a-load of their pedigrees!)   Here they are, shakin' it with "Carnival" at the KPLU studios.

  • Stanton Moore - drums
  • David Torkanowsky - piano
  • James Singleton - bass

All my love,
