Ted Chubb Releases ‘Live at The Statuary’ on Circle 9 Records

Trumpeter and composer Ted Chubb has spent much of his career creating spaces where jazz can be heard up close. A longtime New York–area bandleader, educator whose playing reflects the lyrical lineage of Booker Little, Art Farmer, and Kenny Dorham, he and his wife reopened a historic Jersey City building, the Statuary — an intimate performance space where audiences sit just feet from the band. Live at The Statuary captures that atmosphere over four nights with longtime collaborators Bruce Williams, Oscar Perez, Tom DiCarlo, and Jerome Jennings.
