Blessed with the natural ability to blend the joy and youthfulness of their sound with the knowledge and wisdom of lyrics beyond their years, The Bridge Trio spans the generational lines between the old school jazz that influenced their sound to the new jazz-infused compilation of several contemporary genres that comprises their debut album.

Raised in New Orleans, one of the most revered cities for music and young talent, Joe Dyson, Max Moran and Conun Pappas bring their Southern roots and world travel to every experience chronicled in their compositions. Each member a graduate of the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts (NOCCA), the Bridge Trio learned at a young age the fundamentals and demands involved with cultivating creative sound from some of the city’s greatest musicians.
