Alex Skolnick Trio to record New York show for a future live release

Alex Skolnick Trio, the jazz-rock project led by Testament guitarist Alex Skolnick, is preparing to document its final scheduled performance of 2026 for a future live release.

The trio is due to play The Iridium in New York City on Sunday, October 25. The concert has been announced as a recording session, although no title, format or release date has been revealed for the planned live recording.

Joining Skolnick are bassist Nathan Peck and drummer Matt Zebroski. Seven-string guitarist Ron Jackson is also set to appear, beginning with a duo performance alongside Skolnick before joining the trio later in the evening.

Skolnick’s work away from Testament has long bridged jazz improvisation and rock influences. The group’s latest studio album, “Prove You’re Not a Robot”, arrived in 2025 and includes a reinterpretation of Tom Petty‘s “Breakdown.”

The venue’s calendar confirms the October 25 engagement. Skolnick is also expected to return to heavier duties in November with Testament and an appearance involving Metal Allegiance around Sepultura‘s farewell concert in São Paulo.
