Sunday Jazz @ the Library

April 21 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

The Adam Moezinia Trio will be performing “Sunday Jazz @ the Library” on Sunday, April 21 at 2 pm, on the “Green,” Youth Services Department, Radcliffe Children’s Library. This event is for adults and older children.

Guitarist Adam Moezinia is a native of Los Angeles, where he studied at the Los Angeles County High School for the Arts (LACHSA) under the mentorship of Jason Goldman, Walter Smith III, and Kenny Dennis. In 2010, he moved to New York City to study at The Juilliard School. Since then, he’s worked with many greats such as Freddy Cole, Mike LeDonne, Cecile Mclorin Salvant, George Coleman and Kenny Washington at venues like Jazz at Lincoln Center, The Blue Note, Birdland, Smoke, Scullers and Bird’s Basement. Adam has also been performing regularly with his band the “Folk Element” trio since 2017. The trio is rooted in the jazz tradition but is influenced by folk music from all over the world including West Africa, South Africa, the Caribbean, the UK and Appalachia. As of April 2021, they officially released their debut album “Folk Element Trio” available on all major platforms! In July 2023, they embarked on a 27 day west coast tour from Los Angeles to Vancouver and back playing some of the iconic west coast venues such as The Black Cat in San Fransisco and 1905 in Portland. Moving forward, they will continue to explore the unique relationship between jazz and folk music, sharing those discoveries with audiences across the globe.
