“A rising force in avant-garde jazz” (Jazz Times), Canadian trumpeter, composer and bandleader Steph Richards is regarded as an adventurous innovator in the scene of experimental jazz. She has steadily established herself as a prominent and influential voice in the NYC experimental scene having worked with pioneering artists ranging from creative musicians Henry Threadgill and Anthony Braxton to pop icons Kanye West, David Byrne and Yoko Ono. Richards is driven by a curiosity how listeners interact with music and what sensory variables are open to experimentation including scent, light and space.
