The Phil Morrison Trio featuring Keith Williams is not your typical jazz trio. What distinguishes this group from others are
1) the fresh arrangements given to traditional jazz standards
2) the strong vocals of pianist, Keith Williams and
3) their original material that may be flavored with elements of Asia, Africa, Brazil and the blues.
Many of the songs written by bassist, Phil Morrison are about people, places, and issues, in addition to more traditional themes. Phil Morrison and Keith Williams frequently work as a duo, adding female vocalists, drummer, or other musicians as required by the diverse settings in which they play. The group performs at upscale hotels internationally as well as domestically with a wide range of music. The songs of Cole Porter, Nat Cole, Gershwin, Jobim, Duke and Stevie Wonder are frequently heard in their program. Currently they appear regularly at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel on Amelia Island, FL and Sea Island Resort Hotels on the coast of Georgia, USA.
The success they enjoyed performing at the Ritz Carlton Hotels in China and Japan has been the cause of frequent return engagements. Whether in Asia or the USA, this trio finds time to present its music at schools, hospitals and other venues that would be open to hearing what they call "jazz... America's classical music." It was particularly rewarding for them to perform at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music in China and the Suzuki Method Headquarters in Matsumoto, Japan where Keith Williams demonstrated his arranging skills as the trio was augmented by an orchestra.
