David Friesen’s acclaimed Circle 3 Trio reunites, bringing together three distinctive musical voices: bassist David Friesen, pianist Greg Goebel, and drummer Charlie Doggett.
Over the years, the trio has earned international recognition for its extraordinary chemistry, adventurous improvisation, and the rare ability to create music that feels both spontaneous and deeply connected. Their recordings, including Where the Light Falls and Triple Exposure, have drawn praise from leading jazz publications including DownBeat, JazzTimes, and All About Jazz.
Critics have celebrated what lies at the heart of Circle 3: three musicians listening, responding, and creating in the moment. All About Jazz described the trio as “one beautiful feedback loop,” while DownBeat characterized their music as “a celebration of interplay rather than ego.”
Now, after years apart, Circle 3 returns to the stage.
This reunion is more than a return to a celebrated body of music. It is the continuation of a musical conversation — shaped by years of experience, friendship, and the unmistakable chemistry that made Circle 3 Trio so compelling from the beginning.
