Max Haymer Trio

The Sound Room is aptly named. The focus is on the sound or the music. Unlike clubs where the performance may be peripheral to the experience, at the Sound Room the performance is the experience.  We are an all-ages listening room. We exist to present great music and promote jazz as an art form.The Sound Room is the home of Bay Area Jazz & Arts, a  501(c)3 non-profit organization focused on promoting the Arts.

The Sound Room

For the past 4 years Max has been the sole pianist for 10x Grammy Award winner Arturo Sandoval, and recently the exclusive pianist for singing legend, Jane Monheit. When he&#x27;s not performing/touring with Arturo and Jane,he leads his own trio. The band has just released a brand new live album WHIRLWIND: Live at Sam First. The band will be bringing the heat with some fiery Afro-Cuban and Modern Jazz piano trio stylings. Joining him will be Karl McComas-Reichl on bass, and Rick Montalbano on drums. This is one of the most unique piano trios playing today, as they are able to draw from jazz tradition as well as the Great American Songbook, while twisting it to create a new powerful sound. Dubbed as “Athletic Jazz,” this will be a night of music not to be missed.Max Haymer was born and raised in Los Angeles. He began his classical piano studies at the age of seven and was introduced to jazz piano at the age of 14.He studied with the great LA based pianist Tamir Hendelman through high school and went on to continue his music education at UC Irvine, graduating with Magna Cum Laude honors and a Bachelor of Music degree in 2007.
