Voice, Vibes and Tap Dance: A fusion of styles, sounds and rhythm from contrasting corners of the world, from Yoruba song to rock-fusion all the way to afro-cuban inflections, interwoven with the occasional Austrian folk song -- this is TrioNada. Seasoned players in the New York City jazz/music/dance scene, those three present their experiences, impressions, and artistic evolvement as a mosaic of emotion, vibration, harmony and groove. The world as a playground for dialogue, monologue and cacophony is their stage, original compositions, songs from the vast vault of pop/jazz/world/rock and afro-cuban grooves are their map. The result: a comfortingly eclectic kaleidoscope, that challenges the audience to surrender, if only to find out what actually happens beyond the rabbit hole.
Really, really nice stuff. Congratulations Tim et al. So cool to see the vibraphone used in a such a way that plays to its underappreciated strengths. Can't wait to see this band live.
