“Skaff is one of the best of his class.” — John Heidt, Vintage Guitar

Greg Skaff is a masterful guitar player who effortlessly combines unparalleled artistry with pure, unfiltered emotion. It’s no wonder that he’s regarded as one of the leading proponents of jazz music in the world today—and trust us, that’s no exaggeration! But that’s not all—Skaff has played with some of the greatest jazz musicians of all time, including Ruth Brown, Freddie Hubbard, and David “Fathead” Newman, as well as contemporary greats like Ron Carter, Ben Allison, and many others.

Starting out with a five-year stint in the band of saxophone giant Stanley Turrentine, Skaff has since become a first-call sideman in the thriving jazz scene of New York City. And now, he’s bringing his exceptional trio to Zinc on Monday, April 24th, for a night of classic standards and original compositions that will blow your mind. Joining Skaff on stage will be the talented bassist Ugonna Okegwo and the dynamic drummer Jonathan Barber.
