DESCRIPTION:Bob DeVos Guitar • Richie Morales Drums • Jerry Z Hammond B-3 Organ   \n\n\n\nDMZ is the powerful collaborative trio of DMZ virtuoso all–and all leaders in their own right. \n\n\n\n\n\nDMZ is the powerful collaborative trio of Bob DeVos on guitar\, Richie Morales on drums\, and Jerry Z on  Hammond B-3 organ–virtuosi all–and all leaders in their own right. Each brings years of innovative performing  in diverse jazz settings to their shared DMZ vision. Dynamic\, soulful—and always very hip–their collective sound  bridges straight-ahead jazz\, blues\, R&B\, funk and Latin influences. DMZ’s musical chemistry is intoxicating.  Performances showcase extraordinary improvisational skills\, tight ensemble playing and a magnetic energy.  Whether interpreting jazz standards with fresh perspectives\, rethinking pop tunes or performing original  compositions\, DMZ is satisfying to the purist and welcoming to new listeners.  \n\n\nRegister on Eventbrite\n\n\nThe Artists  \n\n\n\nBob DeVos With long\, blues-drenched melodic lines and a horn-like approach\, legendary guitarist Bob DeVos  is a modern player with strong traditional roots\, equally at home in multiple genres and musical settings. His  full\, warm signature sound and improvisational mastery reflect his formative years touring with seminal giants  of organ jazz\, especially Trudy Pitts\, Richard “Groove” Holmes & Sonny Stitt\, Jimmy McGriff & Hank Crawford\,  and Charles Earland. Bob has also performed/recorded with a Who’s Who In Jazz including Joey DeFrancesco\,  Dr. Lonnie Smith\, Mike LeDonne\, Eric Alexander\, Gerry Niewood’s Timepiece w/Dave Samuels\, Stanley  Turrentine\, Teo Macero\, Irene Reid\, Houston Person\, David “Fathead” Newman—and “Screaming” Jay Hawkins.  Bob’s compositions have been recognized by the NJ State Council on the Arts. A sought-after teacher\, he is past  faculty at William Paterson and Lehigh Universities. His several CDs as a leader hit JazzWeek’s Top Five Chart.  \n\n\n\nRichie Morales NYC-born\, DMZ’s highly acclaimed\, highly versatile drummer Richie Morales has enjoyed a  long career spanning diverse jazz styles. Morales’ impressive credits include the seminal jazz-fusion of The  Brecker Brothers\, the Latin jazz of Gato Barbieri\, Ray Barretto\, and Dave Valentin plus–most recently–touring  with guitar great Al Di Meola. He has performed and recorded with contemporary jazz artists including Spyro  Gyra\, Grover Washington Jr.\, Michael Franks\, Mike Stern\, saxophonist Bill Evans\, as well as Diane Reeves\, Stevie  Wonder\, Carly Simon\, George Russell’s Living Time Orchestra\, and Herbie Mann.
