⊹
New Jazz Underground, an American trio, have been described as “an innovative and ultra-creative collective striving to establish themselves as a defining voice for the genre of jazz and beyond.” Their music signals a merging of traditional sensibilities in jazz with the modern influence of swing, hip-hop, house, and Afro-Cuban music.
Millions have been introduced to the trio’s undeniably fresh sound through viral videos of the band performing in their living room. Videos such as “they can hate but we still swingin’,” “f**k/s**t/c**t/jazz,” and “sad boy jazz” feature the band's exuberant chemistry, effortless musicality, and raw ambition in sound.
Abdias Armenteros, Sebastian Rios, and TJ Reddick have been lauded as some of jazz's most promising young artists in their own right. After meeting while students at The Juilliard School, the trio began playing in the parks of New York City during lockdown in 2020. They have since performed as New Jazz Underground at venues including Dizzy’s Club and Birdland, and Reddick and Rios have played as sidemen for the likes of Jon Batiste, Sullivan Fortner, and Emmet Cohen.
