BARRY

Jazz guitarist Barry Greene is widely respected for his swinging time feel, rich tone, and deeply melodic approach to improvisation. Rooted in the classic jazz guitar tradition yet unmistakably personal in voice, Greene’s playing combines technical command with warmth, lyricism, and musical clarity.

Giants is jazz guitarist Barry Greene's most fully realized recording to date—a powerful tribute to the players who shaped his musical voice, including Pat Martino, Grant Green, Wes Montgomery, and Russell Malone. Spanning organ trio, modern ensemble, and solo guitar settings, the album reflects a lifetime of deep immersion in the jazz tradition, delivered with authority, swing, and an unmistakable personal voice. With Pat Bianchi on B3 organ and drummer Ulysses Owens Jr., Greene captures the raw energy and soulful drive of the classic organ trio.
