Nick Mancini

vibraphonist • composer • arranger • educator

Here, Nick finds himself at the helm of a trio which features the finest purveyors of the Hammond B3 organ, and many of our most cherished masters of the drumming arts. Mancini's compositional chops are in peak performance, equalled only by his playing; one finds themselves amidst a wash of deft, arpeggiatic runs, and, entrancing and delicate, yet unyielding melodic phrases. Witnesses are transported through time and space to places that are familiar to the senses, yet indescribable with words common to the context of mainstream life. After 25 years of embracing audiences with the warmth and humor that spontaneously springs from his music and person, Mancini continues to leave them wanting more, and more...and more.
