Jay Sanders Trio

Melodic explorer Jay Sanders has wielded his trumpet and piano across many a Bay Area establishment over the years. Raised in Santa Cruz, CA. Jay discovered music at an early age on his own terms, playing along to songs off the radio until he was introduced to jazz via the teachings of notable bay area jazz educators Ray Brown, Dizzy Gillespie, and the late Smith Dobson. Affectionately nicknamed Jay Standards by his peers Jay has amassed a sizable collection of jazz standards in his memory bank.
