The JIM Session Trio
JIM Session Trio
JOE, IVAN and
MIKE, three very experienced musicians have come together from diverse backgrounds to form the JIM Session Trio.
Keyboardist Joe DeBenedictis
Joe DeBenedictis, originally from Arizona, moved to the Cleveland area in 2007 after spending a number of years in Tacoma Washington where he was best known for performing Americana folk music as well as many original compositions.
Bassist Ivan 'Big Ive' Williams
Ivan has been playing bass since 1972 with an emphasis on jazz, fusion, R and B, soul,
and funk. He is originally from the Detroit area, having moved to Dallas when he was nineteen, then relocating to Cleveland a number of years later.
Mike Zelver-Drummer and leader of the group
Mike Zelver was born and raised in San Francisco and began playing music as a young trumpet player at the age of 9. By the time he was a
teenager Rock n' roll was taking hold but Mike was only interested in jazz. Buying his first set of inexpensive drums, he
would set them up in front of the stereo and play along with the recordings of the big bands, and singers like Frank Sinatra,
letting his imagination take him to the big stage and the cheering audiences. He felt the need to play jazz but could not
develop his talent to improvise on trumpet so he found his creative outlet through drumming.
