2017 Jerry Granelli – Dance Hall
Dance Hall is an album by American-born Canadian jazz drummer, Jerry Granelli. The album was released in 2017.
Born in San Francisco, Granelli was involved with the city’s hard bop scene from a young age. A day spent with drummer Gene Krupa in 1948 informed his passion for percussion and eventually led to him studying with Joe Morello.
In the 1960s he recorded and toured with the Vince Guaraldi trio, appearing on Vince Guaraldi, Bola Sete and Friends and A Charlie Brown Christmas. Later in the decade, he joined the Denny Zeitlin trio with Charlie Haden
Since the 1990s, Granelli has lived in Halifax, Nova Scotia, becoming a Canadian citizen in 1999. In 2010, he released his first solo album, 1313.
