Luke Stewart’s Silt Trio
Free grooves and rhythms by influential players from the American underground.

The leading jazz magazine Downbeat selected him as one of the ’25 for the Future’: key figures of the current generation who will determine the future of jazz. In his current Silt Trio, the influential bassist leans towards spiritual jazz in the tradition of Albert Ayler. This entails free rhythms and grooves, with undertones of the blues from his birthplace Mississippi. And plenty of improvisational room for his partners on saxophone and drums.

Out of his residence Washington D.C., Luke Stewart has been involved in music in different guises: as a double bassist and electric bassist, but also as a saxophonist, producer, radio host and organizer. With Silt Trio he recorded the 2022 album The Bottom on Cuneiform Records.

Presented by Scenius Series, Luke Stewart’s Silt Trio brings their groundbreaking jazz to Athens for an unforgettable evening.
Featuring bassist and composer Luke Stewart, Chicago drum legend Chad Taylor and reed virtuoso Brian Settles, the trio explores the depths of free jazz and avant-garde soundscapes. With their latest album, The Bottom (Cuneiform Records), they redefine the boundaries of improvisation and collaboration.

Don’t miss this chance to witness the raw energy and creative brilliance of three trailblazing musicians.
