We kick off the 2026 Dot Jazz Series with an appearance by the Tim Ray Trio on Saturday 1/10 at 8pm.
Pianist Tim Ray’s wide-ranging skills as a soloist and accompanist have afforded him the opportunity to perform with legendary artists across musical genres. He is perhaps best known as Tony Bennett’s pianist and musical director from 2016 until his retirement in 2000. He regularly performs with leading figures in the jazz world, among them Kurt Elling, Gary Burton, Esperanza Spalding, Phil Woods, Terri Lyne Carrington, Scott Hamilton, Dave Douglas, John Patitucci, Brian Blade, Lewis Nash and Rufus Reid. Tim has performed in concert with an extensive list of pop music icons, notably Aretha Franklin, Lyle Lovett, Bonnie Raitt, Jane Siberry and Soul Asylum. His classical credits include solo performances and concerts with the Boston Pops, the Boston Modern Orchestra Project and the Glens Falls (NY) Symphony.
The concert will feature Tim’s original compositions and arrangements. He’ll be joined by a dream rhythm team: bassist John Lockwood and drummer Austin McMahon.
