Trumpeter, Gabriel Mervine returns with his quartet for Thursday night residency throughout the month of September. Gabriel's instantly recognizable sound and masterful, sensitive approach to improvised music has established him as one of the most dynamic voices in the Denver scene and beyond. For this collection of shows, Gabe  will be joined by Dave Devine (guitar), Braxton Khan (drums), and Patrick McDevitt (bass).

Born in Princeton, New Jersey, Gabriel Mervine began his professional playing career at the age of thirteen. He went to the Colorado University at Boulder for Jazz Studies, but after one year decided to dedicate his time to becoming a working trumpet player, which would include continuing his studies privately with people such as Bobby Shew, Roger Ingram, and Greg Gisbert, just to name a few.

Gabriel quickly gained recognition and began performing with people such as Natalie Cole, Christian McBride, The Clayton/Hamilton Orchestra, The Colorado Symphony, The Temptations, Terence Blanchard, Karl Denson, John Scofield, Lonnie Smith, Russell Malone, The Who, Maceo Parker, Wycliff Gordon, Sean Jones, Roberta Gambarini, the Motet, and Houston Person while also building a strong freelance career playing everything from Mariachi to Mahler. In addition to being one of the most respected and sought after trumpeters in Colorado, Gabriel is also a renowned bandleader, taking his ensembles on new sonic journeys with every performance.
