“The Tim Paxton Trio plays an uncompromising, unapologetic brand of jazz that puts them in the top rank of Portland bands”, wrote one local Portland music critic.

Our trio performs contemporary interpretations of timeless jazz standards as well as high-energy Latin and Funk grooves. Overall, our primary goal is to convey the joy of the collective creative experience to the listener.

Each member of this flexible and versatile trio has a minimum of 30 years of live playing and recording experience. This is the music we love to play, and it shows!

The Tim Paxton Trio is available to provide stylish jazz for weddings and corporate events as well. We provide that special ambiance that will turn a gathering into an event to remember. Our trio is just as comfortable playing background dinner music as we are with tunes designed to get your guests out of their seats and onto the dance floor.
