"My concept for the Brian McKnight Trio was inspired by the fact that my bassist, Chris "big sexy" Loftlin, and my guitarist, Tyrone "gutt bucket" Chase, and I have been playing together for 15 plus years. We've played all over the world in venues great and small and I wanted to bring all of those experiences together on stage with the three of us in a small trio setting playing all of my hits and b sides and relating our stories from the road. Basically it will be like my solo show only on steroids." - Brian McKnight
