Will Bernard Organ Trio | KNKX Studio Session

Before starting our studio session with Brooklyn-based guitarist Will Bernard, with Seattle favorites Joe Doria and Tarik Abouzied on organ and drums, I told him most of the interview would focus on “the out-of-towner“. Will said, “wait, I’m here all the time!“ It’s true. The Berkeley, California native makes his home in New York but had just come from spending two weeks performing with friends in New Orleans. Seattle has been another frequent stop on his packed travel itinerary, and Bernard says he’s always excited to play with Joe and Tarik. Bernard is widely traveled across the musical spectrum as well. He was exposed to rock, jazz, hip hop, classical and music from around the world while still in his formative teen years in the Bay Area. He’s made the most of his big ears and curious nature by becoming one of the most adaptable guitarists in the world, but in the KNKX studios, he was all about the groove.
