Music and entertainment in the afternoon - sea view included
On the hunt for the perfect musical moment, the trio acts instinctively as a single organism and with a shared and unerring sense of their very own sound cosmos, developed over the years. The unusual and probably unique combination of drums, piano and sitar enables the trio to constantly explore new musical territory on what is actually a fine line.
The result is always playful and virtuosic, between instrumental ecstasy, intimate introspection and sensitive sound experiments: A fusion of three individual musical characters with very different influences, ranging from pop with a grand gesture to GDR punk and noise, jazz, Bach, minimal music and the classical sitar tradition from India.
