DESCRIPTION:

Rated as Gigmasters' #1 Jazz Trio for the greater Houston area.

“The George Poe Trio has a flair for infusing familiar and beloved music from the 30’s through the 80’s with a fresh sensibility entirely their own. Their musical virtuosity combined with a witty stage presence consistently proves to be a refreshing crowd pleaser.

Perfect for any size venue ranging from large corporate events (George R. Brown Convention Center, B.P. of Texas, Administaff, grand openings, etc.) to more intimate settings (weddings, wine tastings, rehearsal dinners, etc.).The fun they have is infectious; and in short order, every age young and old are won over by the trio’s musical charm.

They offer ‘instrumental-only’ sets of light jazz for clients who are simply looking for the elegant ambiance of a jazzy ‘audio wallpaper’. But the trio is also right at home when the event calls for a more band-focused performance including vocals, and more dynamic sets for dancing within a party atmosphere.

Matthew masterfully plucks a vintage upright bass that serves as an ideal backdrop to George's sophisticated, emotional blend of piano tinkling. Both trade off the role of lead vocal as Lee's disciplined percussion frames it all in a tasteful, soulful mix of danceable, singable tunes.

More than just a tribute to music's most enduring songs, the trio serves homage to a bygone era of songwriting and performing. They blur the lines between the classics, blues, pop, R&B, and jazz. The George Poe Trio transforms contemporary hit songs into classics while stylistic variations of song standards sound better than ever.”

    I think the questionnaire summed it up, they were professional, accomodating, and talented. I also thought that they were very nice men as well as being very talented musicians. I would highly recommend them to friends and would consider them for future AWA events. I feel that I hit the jack pot with Gigmasters and the George Poe Trio.

    George Poe Trio played at our private venue and our members loved it. We have had bands that are too overpowering and after discussing this with George, he made absolutely certain that they did not. He lived up to it, too! We will definitely have them back. They contributed to making the evening a success.
    --Angela J.

    We had great communication before the event. George Poe suggested a song I could sing with the band which was a great idea and went off just fine. The band played at a volume which was perfect for the ball room. They played a fine variety of songs which covered the wide span of ages attending the function. Everyone I communicated with told me how much they enjoyed the music. Finally, I highly recommend the George Poe Trio as a great addition to any function. Henry Legendre

    I was very pleased with the George Poe Trio and would certainly recommend them. From the beginning they were professional - we communicated several times prior to the event, they showed up early to set up and were very accommodating to our needs. Thanks for providing our party with this talent. Everyone that attended our function totally enjoyed themselves and I know a big part of it was because of the George Poe Trio.
