Bruce Menefield Trio Jazz Trio from Cincinnati, OH

"...Groove is in his heart and horn" Kathy Y. Wilson, Cincinnati City Beat... Bruce Menefield's saxophone creates an atmosphere of energy as he performs in a variety of musical genres: jazz, gospel, fusion and R&B. An outstandingly creative musician, Menefield has performed professionally for 35+ years. He has performed with and among some of the best in jazz such as Billy Harper, Clark Terry, Bennie Maupin, Ronnie Laws and John Blake. Bruce is best known for his big bluesy sound, but he has morphed into a highly spirited improviser, able to create new music on the spot and in the height of the moment. When Saxophonist Bruce Menefield's three piece ensemble opens the stage, his guest's hear an original composition intended not only to open their ears by their hearts as well. The initial inspiration behind Menefield's original jazz CD, "My Steps" has been his own life experiences, both inside and outside of music.
