Bill Frisell’s trio featuring bassist Thomas Morgan and Rudy Royston on drums is musically nimble enough to go anywhere with Frisell in the most spontaneous manner. They have a command of the sizable ouevre of Frisell compositions, as well as the popular, folk and standard songs that Bill enjoys interpreting on an ongoing basis. The trio’s method is interactive, conversational and ready to groove at any moment, yielding fresh and surprising performances at every stop along the way.

“Guitar great Bill Frisell explores the creative freedom of the trio format on his new album, Valentine, alongside his longtime trio compadres bassist Thomas Morgan and drummer Rudy Royston... this trio performs a wide-ranging program of Frisell compositions old and new as well as classics and standards, showcasing the profound musical relationship they have formed in their years of touring together.”

— JAZZIZ

“With Valentine, Frisell, Royston and Morgan revel in the tight but loose interplay that is a hallmark of the best groups, plying a course as deeply lyrical as it is adventurous. Feels like the beginning of a great adventure.”

Jean-Philippe Rio-Py, known to the world as RIOPY, is a pianist and multi-instrumentalist composer with over a billion streams, sold-out concerts across continents, collaborations with the likes of Lana Del Rey, and a catalogue of albums that have topped the classical charts.

But beneath the numbers lies something far more human: a story of resilience, survival, and a man who has discovered sound as a vessel for healing. 2026 marks the release of RIOPY’s fifth album Be Love - an appeal born out of the artist’s awe-inspiring journey of rediscovery and defiance, and a refusal to let fear or illness silence him.

“It’s called Be Love because that’s the only thing that matters. Be love. And if we all love, then everything is fine,” he says simply.

Be Love will see RIOPY sing for the very first time on a release. The composer-instrumentalist has utilised numerous ways to produce sound, just never his own voice. “I had this compulsion, this need to use my voice, because I think it’s one of the biggest fears I’ve had through my life. But it’s something I really enjoy doing.” He shares, “I started just whispering… it’s not a new me, it’s just an expansion of what I do. It felt right, because I needed to do this.”
