About Ellery Eskelin
An adept tenor saxophonist with a strongly individualistic approach to modern creative jazz, Ellery Eskelin combines edgy harmonies with boldly idiosyncratic phrasing and a lyrical warmth. Closely associated with the New York Knitting Factory scene, Eskelin initially garnered attention in the 1980s playing with organist Jack McDuff before establishing himself as a leader. On his own, he has released a bevy of adventurous and textural albums, including 1990's Forms and 2006's Quiet Music. He has also worked regularly in a trio with Andrea Parkins and Jim Black, issuing albums like 1998's Kulak, 29 & 30, and 2003's Arcanum Moderne. Along with albums with Drew Gress, Mark Dresser, Erik Friedlander, and others, Eskelin has continued to seek out interesting projects, collaborating with saxophonist Liebman for 2012's Non Sequiturs, and playing in a trio with bassist Christian Weber and drummer Michael Griener for 2017's Sensations of Tone and 2019's Pearls.
