Larry Corban is a New Jersey jazz guitarist, composer and bandleader with 5 CD's. His rhythm section of choice is the Aperturistic Trio (pianist James Weidman, bassist Harvie S, drummer Steve Williams). Alto saxophonist, Steve Slagle, guested for 3 cuts on his fourth cd, “Corban Nation.” Corban Nation was on Jazzweek: 20 weeks on the Top 100, peaking at #18 overall; CMJ Jazz Chart: 7 weeks on Top 40, peaking at #4 overall, and RMR Jazz Chart: 19 weeks on Top 50, peaking at #1 overall.

His most recent and fifth cd, “Emergence,” came out April 26, 2019. On his fifth recording as a leader and third with the Aperturistic Trio, Larry Corban wields his burgundy Gibson L-5 with a blend of unabashed swing on uptempo burners and tender lyricism on relaxed ballads. This time out the core quartet is augmented by tenor sax titan, Jerry Bergonzi, who elevates the proceedings with ferocious blowing on four tunes. The music is on the cusp of straight-ahead jazz in the present moment with an intentional nod towards the mid 60's Blue Note era.

Larry has partnered with Deko Entertainment for his forthcoming sixth cd.
