The Ed Pharr Trio

The Ed Pharr Trio has been working together since 1992. The group consists of Ed Pharr on piano, Lonnie Elliott on bass, and Allen Unklesbay on drums and percussion. Known for their mix of upbeat standards and original jazz stylings the combo has entertained at area night clubs, country clubs, hotels, and for private parties. Audiences have consistently commented on the group’s ability to tailor the music to the occasion. The trio is at home playing for wedding receptions, dance parties, banquets, concerts, and for background music.
