Press
“Joris Teepe has become musical partners with some of the best musicians in New York. This is due to his status as a bassist who possesses a warm, even tone, and a sympathic, swinging beat — but also to his abilities as a writer, arranger and band leader.”
— Peter Washington · New York
Three lives, one instrument
Sideman to the legends, leader of his own bands, and teacher to a generation of young jazz musicians.
