Logan guitarist, Brad Wright, is best known in Ogden for appearances with Orjazm, a jazz organ trio but he also is an essential member of Way Way East Bay, Larry Smith's Kix band, The Gringos, Jazz Pudding, and last but not least, the Ryan Conger/Brad Wright Duo.

Ryan Conger is a jazz organist from Northern Utah. He has done studio recordings on many albums in the past and has performed regularly the past 16 years. Whether its the blues, funk, bebop, or a sultry jazz ballad- you will be drawn in by his subtle melodic phrasing and his attention to the variety of tone color available to the instrument, all while he's 'holding down the bass lines' with his left hand and feet on the pedal board.

Benjamin Jennings will be playing drums with the trio. He also plays upright bass with local jazz and blues ensembles. He orchestrates the every-other-weekly Jazz Jam at the Wine Cellar where he offers local musician an opportunity to meet other musicians and develop their "jazz muscles." He also produces the Jazz at the Station summer program through the Union Station foundation with Roberta Beverly.

Jazz at the Station provides an all-ages venue for jazz fans and students. Well behaved children are welcome to attend as long as they do not disturb the performers or members of the audience.
