Dave Meder Trio
The Dave Meder Songs and Stories Trio played at Detroit’s Cliff Bell’s on Sunday, November 21, with shows at 7:30 and 9:30 p.m. They delivered a fresh take on the traditional jazz trio, blending gospel standards, avant-garde, and American minimalist influences.

This trio approaches the traditional jazz trio format with a fresh perspective—moving from classic gospel to bold reinterpretations of avant-garde figures like Thelonious Monk and Andrew Hill, and on to intricate explorations inspired by American minimalists such as Philip Glass and John Adams. On November 21 at Cliff Bell’s, they celebrated the release of their second album, "Unamuno Songs and Stories," which responds to recent social upheavals in the U.S. The trio is praised for its adventurous mixing of styles, covering a broad spectrum of American music.
