Brian Ho | Organ Sylvia Cuenca | Drums Dann Zinn | Sax Dann Zinn is a true game changer, taking jazz in bold new directions. A world-class saxophonist and flutist, he is renowned as a passionate soloist and accomplished composer-arranger. Hailed as “inventive” and “distinctive,” Zinn creates stunning, deeply emotional listening experiences. His singular tone and expressive voice set him apart as a one-of-a-kind artist on today’s jazz scene. Over his career, Zinn has worked and recorded with an extraordinary range of artists, including Omar Hakim, Rachel Z, Peter Erskine, Mike Stern, Taylor Eigsti, Dave Eshelman, Derrick Hodge, Cuong Vu, Mary Wells, and many others. He has appeared on numerous recordings and produced six albums as a leader, including Shangri La , which DownBeat awarded four stars and named one of 2015’s best albums. His release Day of Reckoning (Origin Records) earned international acclaim, and Two Roads features Rachel Z, Omar Hakim, and Jeff Denson. Zinn has toured worldwide, performing at premier venues and festivals such as the Monterey Jazz Festival, Smalls in NYC, and Yoshi’s. Brian Ho began playing piano at the early age of five taking lessons at both Stanford and San Jose State. By the age of sixteen, he began to play in bands professionally and started teaching piano. After his college years spent studying music at UC Davis, he decided to pursue his love of music as a leader, composer, and arranger. Brian now leads his own group on the Hammond Organ and is an in demand sideman. While Brian still stays rooted in the tradition of classic Hammond Organists such as Jimmy Smith, Shirley Scott, and Jack Mc Duff; with his vast knowledge of styles and influences he has developed his own unique and modern take on organ jazz.
