About the Musicians
Joe Pino, trumpet and flugelhorn
Joe Pino is a Boston- and NYC-based trumpet player. He has performed as a leader and sideman at some of the most elite venues in country including Blue Note Jazz Club, Madison Square Garden, Club Bohemia, Smalls Jazz Club, Mad Monkfish, Swing 46 Jazz & Supper Club to name a few. His extensive performance career has led him playing with The Temptations & Four Tops, the national Broadway tour of Woody Allen’s “Bullets Over Broadway,” “Elf The Musical,” and with the multi-Grammy-Winning Reggae group, Morgan Heritage. A hard-working Boston native, Joe stays busy with his jazz trio and quintet, as well as composing, teaching, and playing sessions around Boston and New York City. He is also on the brass faculty for Berklee College of Music’s Artist Link City Music Program. Follow Joe on his YouTube channel (youtube.com/joepinojazz) as well as facebook, instagram, and tiktok.
Steve Chaplin, piano
Steve Chaplin is a central Massachusetts native who grew up playing with his brother Greg Chaplin (bass) in the wake of early bebop saxophonist Henry “Boots” Mussulli and with the tutelage of legendary Worcester pianist and educator Dick Odgren (musical partner to Emil Haddad, the godfather of Worcester, MA’s jazz tradition). A graduate of the Berklee College of Music, Chaplin is frequently seen playing in and around central Massachusetts in a trio setting with his brother Greg Chaplin and retired Berklee professor and musical mentor Bob Tamagni (drums). This trio has also regularly performed with regional jazz artists such as Greg Hopkins (trumpet), Mark Zaleski (alto and soprano saxophones), Bill Jones (tenor saxophone), and Mark White (guitar), to name a few. Chaplin also regularly collaborates with Berklee College of Music classmate Joe Pino (trumpet) and frequently leads his hometown Catholic congregation in song during weekly Mass service.
Joe Albano, tenor sax
Saxophonist Joe Albano forged his sound and compositional style through his studies at Berklee College of Music with some of the world’s greatest musicians and composers. Rather than remain within tradition, he bent and twisted those lessons into uncharted forms. His voice moves freely between jazz, contemporary classical, and the raw edges of rock and metal. The result is music that is as technically refined as it is unpredictable.
Josh Schulz, bass
Joshua Schulz is a bassist and educator living in Groveland, Massachusetts. After studying with Seacoast legend Les Harris Sr., Joshua continued to study both classical and jazz music while performing throughout Greater Boston, the North Shore, Seacoast, and beyond. He teaches in Byfield at Governor’s Academy, as well as privately to a wide range of ages. Joshua has made it his mission to share the gift of music to students and audiences alike.
Andrew Jones, drums
Andrew Jones is an active drummer from Boston’s North Shore. He has played with artists such as Charles Neville and Esperanza Spalding. He teachers at the Birches Academy of Arts & Academics and also serves as the Vice President of the Percussive Arts Society’s Massachusetts chapter.
