The project was born in Brussels in 2023. Creative leader Tristan Bernoud composes original pieces that have already been acclaimed at concerts in several Brussels venues such as the Jazz Station and the Sounds Jazz Club. The group is the 2025 winner of the cross-border Propulsion program, BANDS track.

Their influences are varied, ranging from John Coltrane, Thelonious Monk, and Ornette Coleman to musicians from the current New-York scene, such as trumpeter and composer Ambrose Akinmusire, saxophonist Immanuel Wilkins, and vibraphonist Joel Ross.

The music promises to captivate listeners, taking them on a colorful journey, while the energy shared by the musicians on stage makes the audience vibrate.

“There is a lot of interaction between the musicians, resulting in a strong group that masters their skills well. The sound palette, enriched with the vibraphone, adds a pleasant dimension. They distinguish themselves through their craftsmanship and demonstrate this through a very playful approach to making music. As a band they stand strong with a fully developed concept.”
