Brooklyn-based drummer/composer Scott Neumann presents a new trio with the internationally acclaimed musicians, saxophonist Michael Blake and bassist Mark Helias. They all have extensive experience in the trio setting allowing them to break away from the stereotypical responsibilities of their respective instruments. Neumann's original compositions contain a balance of lyricism, rhythmic pulse and openness of structure, maximizing the bold improvisational capabilities of each of these fine musicians, resulting in a sound that is enjoyably fresh in it's creative endeavor.
