The E.W.A. Trio, comprised of guitarist and bandleader Erik Skov, bassist Wesley Morgan, and drummer Alvin Cobb, Jr., was formed in the Summer of 2015. This group is built on a foundation of referencing the lineage and legacy of classic straight-ahead jazz trios. E.W.A. breathes new life into the timeless classics of the American Song Book and performs inventive arrangements of current pop standards. Growing up in different parts of the United States and drawing inspiration from the musical traditions of their respective hometowns, they strive to use their different musical experiences and influences to create a constant sensation of musical synergy.
