The electrifying jazz trio is led by pianist, composer and Steinway artist Connie Han, one of the brightest young stars in jazz, who interprets the pantheon of jazz piano, ranging from Harlem stride to modal post-bop with her own fiery, contemporary style.

Connie Han has looks like the bad girl of jazz... but she's really just a young woman with buckets of talent and the artistic nature to go with it.

For their 38th season at Undermain they are creating an exciting array of diverse performance opportunities to inspire and enrich our community and support artists in North Texas. They hope to be able to offer live performances in addition to the virtual streaming videos for each production.
