Drummer

Sarin had relocated to New York by 1991, when the trio recorded the album
Anima for Knitting Factory's label. The Chapin Trio continued to record excellent albums until the loss of
Thomas Chapin in 1998. In addition to being a core member of this group,
Sarin has worked frequently with such genre-leading musicians as bassists

Myra Melford, violinist
Mark Feldman, guitarist
Brad Shepik and many more. ~ Joslyn Layne
