ABOUT SWADE TRIO
Soul. Groove. Portland.
Blending the heart of Gospel, the sophistication of Jazz, and the timeless groove of R&B and Soul, SWADE TRIO delivers a sound that’s both classic and cutting-edge.
Led by Stacey Wade — a Berklee-trained musician who performs with the legendary Al Green — the Trio brings unmatched musicianship, energy, and authenticity to every performance.
With Benjamin Wright’s dynamic bass lines and Walter Dean IV’s deep rhythmic pocket, SWADE TRIO creates an immersive experience where every note tells a story.
Whether in intimate venues like Strum PDX or on festival stages, SWADE TRIO delivers soulful, world-class performances that move both heart and body.
