Jazz Musician…

As a Jazz pianist, Danny Kolke is known for his aggressive technique, passionate voicings and hard swinging blues and gospel feel. As Jim Wilke (KNKX / Jazz After Hours Public Radio International) has said, “if you like trio’s like those of Oscar Peterson and Gene Harris, you are going to like this trio.”

Danny plays piano regularly at Boxleys in North Bend and he has four CD’s on the Pony Boy Records label. His most recent CD, “When You’re Smiling” is a hard-swinging traditional piano trio album with some new twists, a must have. Danny’s previous album “Danny Kolke Trio +One Featuring Pete Christlieb”,  add’s Pete’s amazing legendary Tenor sound to the dynamic group. Danny’s other Trio recordings are “Sunday Nights, Live at Boxley’s” and “A New Meaning”.
