Brothers III – Ken & Harry Watters

Description

For this recording, Harry and Ken Watters’ expert proficiencies are featured on trombone and trumpet, respectively, and are joined by Tom Wolfe on guitar, Erik Applegate on acoustic bass, and Jay Frederick on drums and percussion.

While bringing a new and varied flavor to this recording, this exquisite collection of jazz maintains the common thread that brought their previous endeavors to such high acclaim – a deep brotherly love and respect for one another and a musical compatibility that they have never experienced anywhere else.

Their music has been featured on NPR’s All Things Considered, and Jazz South programs, PRI’s Jazz After Hours, and has been used on a feature television documentary by The Freedom Forum. The duo has performed with an extensive array of artists including Frank Sinatra, Marc Anthony, Wyclef Jean, Arturo Sandoval, and Harry Connick Jr. Ken and Harry both attended The University of North Texas.
