The three members of Tarbaby – pianist Orrin Evans, bassist Eric Revis, and drummer Nasheet Waits – share core beliefs about acknowledging the over-arching tradition of the music while being true to one’s own story; together they’re an ensemble of serious intentions and riotous humor, fervid spirit and fierce intellect, passion and purpose. Individually their accolades include multiple Grammy nominations and notable collaborations with Branford Marsalis, Christian McBride, Dave Holland, Kevin Eubanks, Jason Moran and others.

“a strong postbop collective with plenty of moves at its command: advanced rhythmic calculus, sly harmonic implication, [and] cohesive elasticity.”
