Join us for another extraordinary evening of jazz as Caffè Lena’s monthly series returns with resident host and pianist Chuck Lamb at the helm. A cornerstone of Lena’s jazz programming, Lamb brings fresh energy, deep musicality, and an open-hearted spirit to every performance.
This September, the Chuck Lamb Trio welcomes three-time GRAMMY-nominated saxophonist Troy Roberts.
Originally from Australia and now based in New York City, Roberts has earned an international reputation for his expressive playing, remarkable versatility, and distinctive sound. A sought-after collaborator, he has performed and recorded with artists including Joey DeFrancesco, Van Morrison, Kurt Elling, Veronica Swift, Jeff "Tain" Watts, and the Orrin Evans Captain Black Big Band.
As a bandleader, Roberts has released sixteen acclaimed albums, including his latest, Green Lights, featuring John Patitucci, Paul Bollenback, and Jimmy Macbride. His music blends lyrical melodies, adventurous improvisation, and deep roots in the jazz tradition.
Chuck Lamb, pianist with the renowned Brubeck Brothers Quartet since 2002, is celebrated for his passionate, expressive style and dynamic range. A prolific composer whose work spans jazz, fusion, classical, and world music, Lamb moves effortlessly from lyrical elegance to explosive improvisation. Chuck just released his album After Hours on Phila Street, featuring Chuck’s original acoustic jazz fusion compositions, inspired by some of his most personal relationships and joyful moments.
Founded with the vision and support of the late GRAMMY® and Oscar-winning producer Joel Moss, Jazz at Caffè Lena has grown into a regional destination for adventurous, forward-thinking jazz.
In the intimate setting of Caffè Lena, this collaboration promises something special: a night of fearless improvisation, deep musical conversation, and the kind of spontaneous interplay that reminds us why live jazz matters. Whether you’re steeped in the tradition or just beginning your jazz journey, this is music meant to be experienced up close.
