The Valentin Prince Trio is a modern jazz/psych group, specializing in jazz standards and tasteful instrumental versions of familiar songs. Prince has been performing for over a decade in a variety of genres, but is seen here in a more traditional jazz trio: guitar, drums, and upright bass. Offering backgrounds in jazz as well as classical training, drummer Will Hamilton and bassist Spencer Hobbs provide a deft rhythmic foundation. With their tasteful blend of jazz sensibilities and psychedelic textures, the trio is right at home at a quiet restaurant, smoky lounge, or bustling festival alike.

Guitarist Valentin Prince explores the instrument from a perspective of humility and tact—always reaching for his elusive, so-called, “humanness” in music. With a distinctly conversational tone, his notes are intended as a living representation of his actual personality: genuine, thoughtful, and playful. He is known for his clear voice as a guitarist, and frequently references idols Bill Frisell and Julian Lage as guideposts for his sound.
As a bandleader, producer, vocalist, songwriter, session musician, and accompanist, Valentin Prince cites a myriad of musical accomplishments. His work with indie trio, Prince Bellerose, clearly outlines his rock and psychedelia pleasures, while his solo project, picnic., shows a particular ear for production. Despite an unending dedication to creating music, Prince describes his experience as that of a lifelong student, always eager to learn more, and never aiming to cross a “finish line” for musical accomplishment.
