OT's music gets it's special colour from Swedish folk music and hymns, both a strong influence on the group's main composer Joakim Simonsson. He describes the outcome as some kind of melancholy free jazz with a touch of folk music, always with a groove. Free improvisation has with time also grown to be an important part of OT's music. Often a song is no more than a simple melody, like a hymn, open to be explored and developed anew each time it's played. During the last few years Open Trio has performed at some of Sweden's most notable jazzclubs and festivals, along with tours in Germany and the UK. Reproduced with kind permission from Found You Recordings. This has grown to be a real favourite of mine, in particular "Last Crooked Mile" and "Heartland." Open Trio are: - Joakim Simonsson on Piano Par-Ola Landin on Double Bass Daniel Olsson on Drums Excellent CD throughout.
