Steve Ash Trio
Mezzrow161 West 10th Street, New York 10014
Steve Ash brings his trio to Mezzrow on November 30. The billing identifies the night simply as the Steve Ash Trio, with no individual performers, special guests, release, tribute, or late-set theme announced. In Mezzrow's compact basement room, the audience sits close enough to follow the details of a trio performance and the exchanges between players. The bar serves drinks rather than a full meal, keeping the focus on the set.
The available information identifies Steve Ash as the billed act but provides no biographical background, hometown, personnel, recordings, collaborators, or critical commentary.

Mezzrow is part of a foundation that supports jazz artists, and its late-night programming can continue after scheduled performances with vinyl or jam sessions. No further details about Ash's musical history or this trio's repertoire are supplied.
