The Brendan Lanighan Sextet is comprised of experienced and talented Western New York jazz musicians who are dedicated to creating memorable and inclusive jazz concerts for all ages by playing tunes from Dixieland to Disney themes. The exciting three-horn lineup of Lanighan on trombone, Mark Filsinger on the trumpet, and saxophonist Elliot Scozzaro packs the punch of a big band with the sensibility of a chamber jazz ensemble. Lanighan is a proud native of Buffalo and holds degrees from the Eastman School of Music. Since his time there, he has led his own groups and has toured with a wide range of acts, including the Glenn Miller Orchestra, Doc Severinson, and Gordon Webster and his All Stars. He is currently pursuing a Master’s degree at the Juilliard School.
