Aerial view
If we wanted turn this into a multi-page advance, we could simply list the respective credentials for the three musicians in new jazz group the Aerial Trio. Basically, they’re all impressively trained, wonderfully talented players.
For the sake of brevity, let’s just say it’s pretty damned tempting now that guitarist/vocalist Chris Leigh (University of North Texas Jazz Studies Program) drummer David Brensilver (The Juilliard School) and bassist James Hunter (Eastern Connecticut Symphony Orchestra) have joined together as the Aerial Trio. See them Saturday in Hygienic Art’s Underground Jazz Lounge. Cocktails, beer, wine — and jazz — will flow. The Aerial Trio, 6-9 p.m. Saturday, Hygienic Art, 79 Bank St., New London; $10; (860) 443-8001.
