Jorge Leal

The newest member of the band is also the newest on the planet, at a ripe old age of 24, he brings youthful exuberance (and double bass drumming) to the fold, but has the experience and maturity of guys twice his age. Jorge having played with Ramsey Lewis, and many other name players has one foot in the Latin Jazz and straight ahead Jazz world and one in the rock world with Tripolar. Brian said "Jorge is a dream come true, we've had eight excellent drummers in the past three years, but Jorge brings a whole list of new influences to the Tripolar experience with his fusion and jazz background, and he's just plan enjoyable to work with and a fun to watch for the audience".
