David Gibson has enjoyed a varied musical career that is deeply rooted in the genres of jazz and funk. Although he was reared in Oklahoma, Gibson’s musical journey steered him to New York City.   His early experience there had him performing with Slide Hampton, Jon Faddis, Roy Hargrove, Jimmy Heath, James Moody and others. In 2003, he was a finalist in the Thelonious Monk International Trombone Competition and subsequently released several recordings as a leader.  Gibson’s newest recording, End of the Tunnel, is currently available from Posi-tone Records.  The CD is a set of music that evokes the essence of ‘60s Blue Note Soul-Jazz in combination with the modern elements expected from today’s current crop of jazz musicians.  Jared Gold-organ and Rudy Royston-drums will be on board.
