麻豆约拍

Jez Nelson presents a gig by widely feted group Trio VD recorded at the Seven Arts Centre in their hometown of Leeds on the eve of their debut album launch. Formed by Chris Sharkey on guitar, Christophe de Bezenac on saxophone and Chris Bussey on drums, the group unleash a fiery mix of free jazz, heady rhythms, riffs and electronic noise with tracks from their highly anticipated album Fill It Up with Ghosts.

The members of Trio VD met while studying jazz at Leeds College of Music. Since their first performances in early 2006, they have made a commotion wherever they go, including taking the 麻豆约拍 Introducing stage by storm at the 2008 London Jazz Festival.
