The heart of Russell Ferrante’s career has been spent as keyboardist for the legendary jazz group, Yellowjackets.  In fact, he’s the only member who’s been in the group since its inception in 1980.  Outside of his Yellowjackets tenure, Ferrante has also recorded and toured with an incredible array of artists, including Lee Ritenour, Joni Mitchell, Larry Carlton, Robben Ford, George Michael, Take 6, Michael Franks, Dave Grusin, and many more.  However, throughout his lengthy and successful career, Ferrante had yet to release an album containing his own material - until now - as he’s teamed-up with bassist Michael Valerio and drummer Steve Schaeffer to create the Russell Ferrante Trio and the new album “Inflexion”, which is available now on Blue Canoe Records.  The 11 track album contains a mix of originals, covers, and a couple of new arrangements of Yellowjackets tunes.  Here to chat with us today about this beautiful new album is Russell Ferrante.
