Matt Schofield

A talented blues guitarist and the leader of his own trio, English musician Matt Schofield took his curiosity to London after graduating college, and started to jam with various musicians in the scene. Eventually, the trio that would bear his name came together, and Schofield became a bona fide solo presence. The unique vibe that Matt and his trio captured was due in part of their use of organ for bass lines rather than a bass guitar. Comprised of Schofield, keyboardist Jonny Henderson, and drummer Evan Jenkins, the trio has recorded numerous albums, including The Trio, Live, Siftin' Thru Ashes, Live at the Jazz Cafe, and Ear to the Ground. ~ Chris True
