Gene Rush's sound has always had a special appeal to jazz musicians, as somehow his melodies seem to hit the mark as vehicles for creative improvisation. Gene has been a member of the groups of a number of international jazz recording artists, including Eddie Harris, Andrew White, Robben Ford/Quintessence, Lloyd McNeill/ASHA, the Hot Cotton Jazz Band, and he was pianist and music director of The Trio ESP, on Enterprise Records. His recording credits include 23 albums, either as pianist, composer/arranger, or conductor. Additionally, he has performed with a multitude of jazz titans from John Abercrombie, to Attila Zoller. In the spring of 2000 his trio, The Thrio GRT, was selected as a U.S. State Dept./Kennedy Center Jazz Ambassadors group & toured West Africa for six weeks, presenting 23 concerts, 11 jazz workshops and several radio/TV appearances in the countries of Benin, Cote D'Ivoire, Ghana, Niger, Nigeria and Senegal.
