On this episode, we dive into his outstanding 2026 live album, Live at the Statuary – Jersey City , and explore a remarkable career devoted to performance, education, and building a thriving jazz community. For more than two decades, Ted Chubb has been a driving force in the Jersey City jazz scene. As a bandleader, composer, artistic director, educator at Princeton University , and co-owner of The Statuary , he has helped create a vibrant home for live jazz while mentoring the next generation of musicians. Born in Ashtabula, Ohio , Ted grew up in a deeply musical family where piano-centered gatherings sparked his love for music. His artistic path was forever changed after discovering Miles Davis ' 'Round About Midnight and Lee Morgan with Art Blakey on A Night in Tunisia . Those legendary recordings helped shape the melodic, bebop, and blues-rooted style that defines his playing today. During our conversation, we discuss the making of Live at the Statuary – Jersey City , the importance of live performance, jazz education, building community through music, balancing teaching and performing, the influence of jazz legends, improvisation, and the enduring power of straight-ahead jazz.
