Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio
With a deep soul backbone augmented by jazz, R&B and rock ‘n’ roll, the Seattle-based Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio—made up of Lamarr on B-3 organ, Jimmy James on guitar and Doug Port on drums—evokes a classic instrumental sound with a fresh, virtuosic sensibility all its own. In March of 2018, the trio’s album, Close But No Cigar, made it to the top of Billboard’s Contemporary Jazz chart, and also took the #3 spot on the Jazz Albums chart. In their SMF debut, this unique ‘60s and ‘70s vintage soul trio will fill the Morris Center with the sounds of the Hammond B-3, guitar lines and old school pocket drumming.
