It all began in 1976 when the band started playing and later the same year won the first prize at the international jazz competition in Dunkerque, France. Later the same year they were joined by the late saxophone legend John Tchicai, made 2 recordings and toured Europe. Since then the original trio has crisscrossed in several bands and finally in 2017 re-emerged with trumpeter Kasper Tranberg. The old tunes mixed with brand new material keep the music fresher than ever: energetic free jazz, unique themes and close-knit interplay is still the band’s trademark. In April 2019 they released The Bird Next Tree on ILKmusic.
