"Among today's modern jazz pianists, Russ Lossing stands out as one of the artists who intelligently travels between jazz and contemporary music."
-France Musique
"...an iconoclast in the best sense of the word, a true innovator."
- All About Jazz
His new album is available now.
“Lossing shines as brightly as any of the jazz pioneers who preceded him in mapping out their own musical journeys.” - Downbeat Magazine
"I recall nights at the Vanguard with Paul Motian when Lossing brought the music to another level, displaying a formidable command of the tradition and a bristling originality." - David Adler, Jazz Times
Russ Lossing Trio, Greenwich Village, NYC with Drew Gress and Eric McPherson
“…The pianist illuminates the silence, suspends the time, and intensifies the collective flux. The wealth of his harmonic knowledge, the fluidity of his phrasing and his attention to the weight of every single note creates a sound palette for endless pleasures.”
--- JAZZMAN MAGAZINE (FR)
"Stylistically, Lossing is,
simply, a “space man”—like
Thelonious Monk and Paul
Bley, letting the spaces be-
tween notes do the talking."
-ICON Magazine
