Tony Trischka Band includes: Tony Trischka (acoustic guitar, electric banjo); Glen Sherman (vocals, guitar); Michael Amendola (saxophone); Marco Accattatis (bass); Grisha Alexiev (drums). This is a band Tony Trischka assembled in the late 1990s. They're fairly young players, with varied pedigrees and resumes, who share a common love for braiding together a range of musical languages. Electric guitarist Glenn Sherman brings a rock sensibility as a player and soloist, while saxophonist Michael Amendola, bass guitarist Marco Accattatis, and drummer Grisha Alexiev have distinct jazz chops. With the exception of the bass player, they're all contributing composers to the ensemble. The few vocals are handled by guitarist Sherman and are treated as another melodic line, laying within the mix of the other instruments. Most of the pieces feature themes which lock the banjo melodically with either the saxophone or the guitar, or present the banjo in counterpoint to the tandem lines of the other two.
