The swinging, grooving organ quartet We-B3-B4 is the brain child of Louisville guitarist Clay Moore, who first launched the organ trio We-B3, reconnecting with musical compatriots from his years in Austin, Texas. He then augmented the group with phenomenal Louisville trumpetist Marlin McKay. The group’s repertoire includes selections from recordings of artists Herbie Hancock, Blue Mitchell, Stanley Turrentine, and Clay’s originals. Don’t miss this fantastic combination of players!
