The Richard Sherman Trio

Pianist Richard Sherman and Grammy Award winning vocalist Bili Redd have been playing music together for over seven years. In addition to local nightclubs in the South Bay, they have also performed in eight benefit concerts. The trio includes bassist Adam Cohen and drummer Jon Stuart. They have been performing at the fabulous Terranea Resort in Palos Verdes Estates for the last three years and draw standing room only crowds on a consistent basis.

Bili has said this is the best trio he has had behind him in his musical career. The audience can feel the love the musicians have for the music in addition to the love they have for each other.

Their new CD Sing is currently being played on the internet jazz station KEBNRADIO.com. Click here to listen to cuts from Sing.
