Growing up in Ohio, trumpeter Ted Chubb fell in Love with Miles Davis, and never looked back.
Over the years Ted's creativity has been heard with Billy Hart, George Coleman, Wallace Roney, Christian McBride and Antonio Hart among countless others. Paying it forward, Ted was an integral part of education at Jazz House Kids, and he currently also teaches at Princeton.
Ted has always preferred creating spaces where jazz can be heard up close.
With that attitude in hand, he and his wife reopened an historic building in Jersey City - The Statuary, as a performance space, where this recording was captured. With Bruce Williams on alto sax, Oscar Perez on piano & Fender Rhodes, bassist Tom DiCarlo and drummer Jerome Jennings, they share originals with a hip reimagination of "Out Of This World", some John Lewis and other surprises, expressed as it should be - live!
