Eric Siereveld – Trumpeter, Composer and Educator.

For over 20 years, trumpeter Eric Siereveld has built a reputation as a multifaceted performer, composer and educator. Deeply influenced by the hard bop/post bop tradition, his compositions and improvisations are historically rooted and refreshingly modern. He is the leader of the Organic Quintet, a fresh take on the classic organ jazz quintets of the 1960’s. This group features NYC guitarist Jonathan Kreisberg, Indianapolis organist Steve Snyder, Madison based tenor saxophonist Tony Barba and Milwaukee drummer Mitch Shiner.

Their debut recording, “Walk the Walk” features all original compositions from the pen of Siereveld and Kreisberg. A veteran of the New York City music scene, in 2018 Eric relocated to Monroe, LA where he serves a the Assistant Professor of Trumpet/Jazz at the University of Louisiana Monroe, holding the Emy-Lou Biedenharn Endowed Professorship in Music. In addition to his teaching duties, he is a member of the Black Bayou Brass, and created/directs the nationally recognized “Talons for Taps” program. Eric is a Yamaha Performing Artist, and plays Yamaha Trumpets and Flugelhorns. He is also a TorpedoBags Performance Artist and endorsing artist for The Silencer.
