Bio:
The Patrick Kerssen Trio is a jazz piano trio led by pianist Patrick Kerssen that performs throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York. The group’s main focus is the education and creation of new jazz listeners through a combination of Patrick’s arrangements of “updated standards,” (from sources like classic R&B and other pop music, modern film scores, folk music from around the world, and well known European classical music) and traditional jazz by hard bop era pianists and bandleaders. The members of the trio are all experienced professionals, with many tours and major venue performances under their belts at jazz festivals, jazz clubs, large theaters and PACs, and other venues.
