Jazz musicians Teri Roiger, John Menegon and Steve Berger began their musical journey together as a Trio in the summer of 2021. Since then they have been performing weekly at the West Village restaurant ENTWINE. They have developed their own unique style with an exceptional repertoire which includes songs from the Great American Songbook as well as Blues, Bossa Nova, Swing and music of Billie Holiday, Bob Dorough, Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, Gershwin, on and on!

Teri (Minnesota born) is a Jazz Vocalist, but also plays piano, composes music and writes lyrics. She has played and recorded with many Jazz greats, including Jack DeJohnette and Kenny Burrell, as well as leading her own piano trio.

John (Montreal born) is a Jazz Bassist, but is also a guitarist, arranger, and composer. John spent ten years playing and recording with Jazz legends David “Fathead” Newman and Dewey Redman, and currently plays with Jazz legend Joe Lovano as well as leading his own band.

Steve (New Jersey born) is a Jazz Guitarist who studied with Barry Harris and Tal Farlow and has been active as an accompanist, sideman & leader in the New York music scene for the past several decades. He toured and performed with the late, great Bob Dorough for over 30 years, and was house bandleader for 16 years at Arturo’s in Greenwich Village.

The depth of their experiences and love of Jazz is apparent when they bring all their talents to live performances.

“Teri has an intuitive laid back sense of time reminiscent of Abbey Lincoln and Betty Carter but with her own uniqueness.” JACK DEJOHNETTE (legendary jazz drummer & NEA Jazz Master)

“Canadian-bred John Menegon is in the line of George Mraz and Michael Moore; a harmonically sophisticated bassist with technical facility who swings hard when it’s called for.” Kirk Silsbee, Downbeat!

“Steve Berger . . . That’s my kind of Guitar player!” Jimmy Gourley (guitarist)
