About the artist:

Dave Meder, acclaimed pianist and composer, presents creative interpretations of standards and original music from his latest project New American Hymnal. He brings his working trio featuring NYC-based first call bassist Marty Jaffe, and versatile drummer and current percussionist for Hamilton on Broadway, Michael Piolet. New American Hymnal is a set of metaphorical hymns, each dealing with a theme or issue in modern American life. The album was featured in the NYC Jazz Record and made Editor’s Choice in Jazziz Magazine. From the uplifting Americana overture “Modern Gothic”, to reflective musical settings of an RFK speech and an Emily Dickinson poem, Meder and his quartet take the audience through the whirlwind of the American experience.
