Stanton Moore Trio :
Born and raised in New Orleans (and living there still, when
he’s not on the road), Stanton Moore is very much a
product of geography, culture and creative networking. In the
early ‘90s, Moore hooked up with guitarist Jeff Raines,
bassist Robert Mercurio and keyboardist Rich Vogel and
saxophonist Ben Ellman to form the New Orleans-based
“steam-roller” funk band known as GALACTIC. After receiving
his bachelor’s degree in music and business from Loyola
University, Moore and the band made their first record (the
widely acclaimed Coolin’ Off) and hit the road to do nearly
200 gigs a year for the first ten years of Galactic’s existence.
The band has since released five more albums since Coolin’ Off,
and continues to amass a worldwide audience via recording and
touring globally. Despite Galactic's success as a band, Stanton
continues to play solo dates throughout the Big Easy as well as
globally with an ever-evolving cast of musicians: John Scofield;
Karl Denson; George Porter, Jr., and Leo Nocentelli (of the Meters);
Charlie Hunter; Warren Haynes; John Medeski and
John Wood (of Medeski, Martin and Wood); Donald Harrison Jr.;
Robert Walter; the New Orleans Klezmer All-Stars;
the Preservation Hall Jazz Band; Corrosion of Conformity;
and Irma Thomas to name a few.
