Righteous Rooster

Active since: 2023

Righteous Rooster is a Chicago-based organ trio featuring Henry Dickhoff on organ, Kenny Reichert on guitar, and Luke Sagadin on drums and cymbals. Drawing inspiration from the Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio, Soulive, Medeski Martin & Wood, Goldings/Bernstein/Stewart, Grant Green, and the Sam Yahel Trio, they blend rich grooves with soulful melodies, crafting music that honors the classic organ trio tradition while embracing contemporary influences.

The trio’s debut album, Fowl Play (2024, Shifting Paradigm Records) showcases their versatility with six dynamic tracks that blend “greasy funk rhythms, jazz-blues licks, and soulful interplay,” as noted by Textura. UK Vibe celebrates the album's “impassioned funk and soul,” while All About Jazz praises its infectious energy, stating it quickly passes the "can't sit still" test. JazzWax hails it as “one of the best organ trio albums of the year,” and the UK Jazz Journal highlights the trio's "fresh, engaging sound that showcases their mastery and innovative spirit.” Chicago Jazz Magazine affirms that “it’s worth the time to investigate.” As WDCB 90.9FM puts it, Fowl Play is "exactly the funk that you're looking for from an organ trio."
