Tony Malaby has brought a monumental, volcanic lyricism to an incredible diversity of projects since moving to New York in 1995, including Apparitions with Drew Gress, Tom Rainey and Mike Sarin, the Tony Malaby Cello Trio with Fred Lonberg-Holm and John Hollenbeck, Paloma Recio with Ben Monder, Eivind Opsvik and Nasheet Waits, and Tamarindo with William Parker and Nasheet Waits. Tony also co-leads the Malaby Sanchez Rainey Trio. He is a master of steering his groups through a range of musical climates, veering unpredictably from capricious zephyrs to stormy squalls as the mood strikes.
