About simon lasky



As a teaser to our upcoming 2026-27 New Tampa Jazz Nights Series, Tampa Jazz Club presents British born pianist Simon Lasky and his latest project: The Simon Lasky New York Quintet. Lasky, who studied with Grammy nominated Chuck Owen at the University of South Florida School of Music, where he also later taught, has been a mainstay on the Tampa Bay jazz scene for close to a decade. A talented composer, he's recorded several albums of original material. His new group features gifted New York based sidemen Lucas Pino on saxophones, Dave Smith on trumpet, Peter Slavov on bass, Jimmy Macbride on drums, and special guest vocalist and long time collaborator, Allison Nash. Be sure to join us for some marvelous originals performed by an all-star ensemble.
