Come join us for your favorite locally crafted wine from Port Townsend Vineyards and Jazz with the Chris Bickley Trio. The group includes Chuck Easton on guitar. Chuck graduated from Boston’s Berklee College of Music in 1980. He has played many different styles of music over the years, but bebop-influenced jazz is his favorite. Chuck has been teaching private music lessons at Crossroads music in Pt. Townsend, Washington, since 1995, with students of all ages on flute, trombone, saxophone, guitar, bass, piano and clarinet. For many years he has been on faculty for Centrum’s Jazz Pt. Townsend and the NW Big Band, where he was the conductor for a number of years. Chuck continues to play locally on guitar, bass, flute, alto and tenor saxophone and occasionally Eb tuba and trombone.  He plays in duos, trios, quartets, quintets and has a sextet which plays both jazz and R&B dance music with vocals and a horn section. Derick Polk on bass … Derick Polk grew up on the south side of Chicago, Illinois, and attended two universities in the city: DePaul University, where he earned a degree in music theory, and Northwestern Illinois University, where he earned his degree in music education. His military career took him out of Chicago and allowed him to explore other parts of the world, such as Italy and Japan, and gave him further opportunities for performance and conducting. Derick plays tuba in addition to bass, and listens to a wide range of music, including rock, jazz, hip hop, country, and classical. The two most influential musicians in his life are Von Freeman and Fred Anderson, both Chicago jazz legends. and CHRIS BICKLEY on sax. Hope to see you!
