Accompanied by legendary drummer Jack DeJohnette and bassist Larry Grenadier, the former Bad Plus pianist just released “Every Note Is True,” an atypical jazz trio album. Mixing elements of pop, classical, jazz and blues into sort of a crossover collection, Iverson draws inspiration from such disparate forces as TV rom-com theme music and an award-winning children’s mystery writer. This is not surprising from the relentlessly adventurous Wisconsin-reared, Brooklyn-based pianist, who has done everything from composing the score for Mark Morris Dance Group’s Beatles-inspired “Pepperland” to writing jazz criticism for the New Yorker. Returning to a familiar spot in Minneapolis, Iverson will be accompanied by two local all-stars, bassist Anthony Cox and drummer Kevin Washington.

The New York-born, London-based jazz thrush returns behind last year’s “Songs From Other Places,” her intimate voice-and-piano album with the eloquent Art Hirahara. With deft delicacy, she gracefully interprets tunes by Gershwin, Jobim and Weill as well as the Beatles’ “Blackbird,” Paul Simon’s “American Tune” and Fleetwood Mac’s “Landslide,” which she treats as a tune of hope.
