Saksofonisti Thomas Hassi, kitarristi Søren Lee ja trummari Brian Melvini uus ja kaasakiskuv trio sai oma alguse Copenhagen Jazz festivalil 2023. aastal. Trio muusikat iseloomustavad Søren Lee atmosfäärilised ja eeterlikud kitarrihelid, mis loovad aluse Thomas Hassi lüürilistele toonidele ning Brian Melvini värvikas, laiaulatuslik ja meditatiivne trummimäng. Repertuaar koosneb originaallugudest, avatud improvisatsioonist, hoolikalt valitud standarditest ja hinnatud artistide, nagu John Coltrane, kompositsioonidest. Tegu on avatud ja lüürilise universumiga, mille juured peituvad nii Skandinaavia kui ka Ameerika jazzis.
Trio salvestas oma debüütalbumi “MORE SILENCE” 2024. aasta veebruaris Kopenhaagenis MillFactory stuudios. Albumi esiksingel “Our Daily Bread” anti välja 2025. aasta märtsis ja juhatab sisse peagi ilmuva albumi.
Brian Melvin on Ameerika trummar ning muuhulgas mänginud ja salvestanud kuus plaati koos suurepärase varalahkunud bassimehe Jaco Pastoriusega. Tema trio salvestus “Standards Zone” (Global Pacific Records) oli 13 nädalat number üks jazzialbum. Samuti on Melvin mänginud ja salvestanud koos paljude teiste jazzi- ja rokilegendidega nagu Joe Henderson, John Scofield, Mike Stern, Joe Lovano, Bob Weir (Grateful Dead) ning Beatle'i jazz ja Rashied Ali.
Søren Lee on salvestanud ja mänginud koos jazzilegendidega nagu varalahkunud bassimees Ray Brown, Jim Hall, Brad Mehldau, Adam Nussbaum, jt. Søren on teinud endale nime rahvusvahelisel jazzimaastikul kitarristi ja vokalistina tänu oma kõrgelt tunnustatud triosalvestistele (“Soren Lee Diversity Trio”, “Hope”, “Tranesformation”, jm).
Thomas Hass on üks Skandinaavia silmapaistvamaid saksofoniste, kes on aastakümneid kujundanud Taani jazzi. Ta on esinenud koos tuntud muusikutega nagu Rakalam Bob Moses, Tomasz Stanko, Kenny Werner, Jerry Bergonzi, Joe Lovano ja Carsten Dahl. Hass on pälvinud oma kunstnikutöö eest auhindu ja nominatsioone ning välja andnud 17 albumit juhina või kaasliidrina, peamiselt akustilise jazzkvarteti formaadis, kus esinevad Skandinaavia juhtivad jazzartistid. Hass on seigelnud ka elektroonilise jazzmuusikaga, andes koos The Societyga välja kaks albumit.

A new and exciting trio consisting of saxophonist Thomas Hass, guitarist Søren Lee and drummer Brian Melvin came to life during the Copenhagen Jazz Festival 2023. The music is characterized by Søren Lee's atmospheric and ethereal guitar sounds, which create a foundation for Thomas Hass's lyrical tones, and accompanied by Brian Melvin's colorful and wide-ranging meditative drumming. The repertoire consists of original compositions, open improvisations, carefully selected standards, and compositions by artists such as John Coltrane. It's an open and lyrical universe with roots in both Scandinavian and American jazz.
The trio recorded in the MillFactory Studio, Copenhagen in February 2024, and is set to release its first album “MORE SILENCE” in early 2025. The first single introducing the album, "Our Daily Bread" was released in March 2025.
