Blues For Bob

Description

Tim Carman pays tribute to his first drum teacher and mentor, Bob Gullotti, in Blues for Bob. Carman devised the idea for his latest project, Tim Carman Trio, in 2020 while quarantining in a New Hampshire cabin and revisiting records Gullotti presented him during his formative years as an aspiring jazz drummer. As he went down the rabbit hole and took advantage of time off the road with his primary project GA-20, Carman formulated the idea for the project. Tim Carman Trio is no-frills, timeless, B3 organ jazz Inspired by 60s icons such as Jimmy Smith, Brother Jack McDuff and more. Blues for Bob is an original composition and the opening track off of the groups forthcoming debut LP Key Lime coming out worldwide via Color Red in 2022. Eddie Roberts, founder of Color Red and guitarist/bandleader of The New Mastersounds, touts Carmans songwriting and proclivity to the organ trio format as soul jazz how its supposed to sound.
