GARY BRUMBURGH - Los Angeles-based until moving to Nashville in 2018, Gary showcased at L.A.’s preeminent jazz clubs including the renowned Catalina Bar &Grill, Gardenia and Upstairs at Vitello’s. His first jazz CD, Up Jumped Spring, was released in 2007. His second, Moonlight (2017), featured the iconic father-and-son pairing of pianists Terry and Jamieson Trotter and received nationwide airplay where it remained on the Jazz Week charts for 18 weeks. In Los Angeles, he also produced two Jazz vs. Cancer concerts which featured jazz icons Tierney Sutton and Manhattan Transfer’s Cheryl Bentyne. In 2017, Brumburgh showcased his show Beatlejazz: The Early Years: 1962-1966 which focused on imaginative spins of “Fab Four” classics. A Later Years retrospective played in Nashville just before the Pandemic of 2020. His most recent jazz CD, Full Circle, which hit the Jazz Week charts for 16 weeks, is a reworking of songs from musical shows he appeared in while a musical theatre actor in Los Angeles. Pleased to return to NJW after performing his Beatlejazz show and Full Circle release there, Brumburgh has had several tracks played on rotation status at Nashville’s WFSK radio over the years.
