Praised by All About Jazz as being “one of the finest working piano trios in the business,” and by Chicago Jazz Magazine for their “thrilling virtuosity and agile, vibrant improvisations,” The Kevin Fort Trio is a swinging, Chicago-based jazz trio led by pianist Kevin Fort, featuring bassist Joe Policastro and drummer Jon Deitemyer. Rooted deeply in the bebop tradition, the trio’s modern sensibilities breathe new life into both classic and original compositions.
Their discography includes three albums: Red Gold, Perspectives, and Twilight. Each captures the trio’s classic yet innovative approach to jazz. The Kevin Fort Trio blends intricate arrangements of jazz standards with vibrant original pieces, showcasing their exceptional musicianship and cohesive ensemble play. Their recordings, which have garnered over 3 million streams worldwide and been featured on 22 Spotify editorial playlists, highlight their broad appeal and contemporary relevance. With a fourth album, Everything I Love, set to release in 2025, the trio continues to push the boundaries of straight ahead jazz.
