killdeer trio: Jimi Hendrix Tribute
Tuesday, April 15, starting at 7pm
Free to the Public

Killdeer Trio is an instrumental trio co-led by guitarist Wyatt Ambrose, bassist Evan Jagels, and drummer Sebastian Green. They have performed their original music extensively, shared the stage with many jazz legends, and recorded two full-length albums drawing from influences in jazz, rock, hip hop, and improvised music. HOKESJUKEBOX writes, "The trio's cohesion felt all the more impressive in combining unity with freedom." In this special concert, they will pay tribute to Jimi Hendrix in their own unique style.
Wyatt Ambrose is a guitarist, educator, and composer based in Oneonta, NY. He graduated from SUNY Purchase with a degree in Jazz Studies in 2019, where he studied with esteemed musicians such as Vic Juris, Paul Meyers, Jon Faddis, and Richie Morales. Wyatt has performed at venues and festivals including The Bitter End, Rockwood Music Hall, Birdland Jazz Club, and Technos College ’19 Fall Festival in Tokyo. Wyatt is currently an Artist in Residence and Adjunct Professor at Hartwick College in Oneonta. Since 2020, he has worked with liberal arts and music students alike in private lessons, ensembles, and classroom settings teaching jazz, popular music, and aural skills. Although Wyatt performs in a wide variety of styles and settings, he is an improviser at heart and seeks common ground among his diverse influences. He performs jazz standards and originals in solo, duo, and trio format, blending elements of modern jazz, hard-bop, and free-improvisation. In 2022 Wyatt recorded a full-length album with the band “Killdeer Trio” -- a genre-bending group of composer-improvisers, co-led by himself, bassist Evan Jagels, and drummer Sebastian Green.
Sebastian Green is a drum set player from Upstate, NY. His curiosity and passion for music has helped him develop a unique voice on his instrument that he uses to adapt to a wide array of musical styles. He is a member of Killdeer Trio, Sam Whedon and Friends, Leafing, and frequently tours the United States with the Currys. 
Evan Jagels is a versatile upright and electric bassist. He has a Masters Degree in Music Performance from the City University of New York, Queens College, where he received the Michael Feinstein Award and has studied bass with Ron Carter, Buster Williams, Nilson Matta, Yoshio Aomori, Tomoya Aomori, and Franz Pillinger. Jagels has performed with such jazz luminaries as Ray Vega, Gerry Weldon, Antonio Hart, Michael Mossman, Ray Anderson, John Stowell, and Chuck Lamb. Other performance highlights include Carnegie Hall, Flushing Town Hall, the Plaza Hotel, the Record Archive, the Blue Note in Germany and the UniJazz Festival in the Czech Republic. He has recorded with Arlen Roth (Ry Cooder, Levon Helm, John Prine), Martin Bisi (Swans, Sonic Youth, Herbie Hancock), and for Antonio DeVivo’s Vientos de Medara. He is a sought-after freelance jazz bassist in New York’s Capital District, a member of Shatter on Impact with Blake Fleming (The Mars Volta, Laddio Bollocko, Sean Lennon) and Amar Sastry (Anatomy of a Jam creator, AmarGuitar.com), Killdeer Trio, and Duo Extempore with NYC-based pianist Nicole Brancato. Jagels has performed throughout Germany with Paul Berberich (Zur Schönen Aussicht, CONtrust Jazz Orchestra) and recently released “Night Service”, a duo album of improvised music with Andreas “Scotty” Böttcher of Dresden, Germany. Jagels is also Music Director for Origins Cafe in Cooperstown, NY and founder of the Origins Featured Artist Series. He has taught for the New York Summer Music Festival, the Oneonta Pop Music Experience, JazzConnect at Flushing Town Hall, SUNY Oneonta, and is currently Artist in Residence and Lecturer of Music at Hartwick College.
