In 2016, this superlative trio of Jakob Bro on electric guitar, Thomas Morgan on bass and the legendary Joey Baron on drums & percussion issued one of ECM Records’ finest albums, Streams. Speaking of their collaboration in Downbeat, critic Ken Micallef, who gave the resulting album a 4 and a half(!) of out of 4 stars writes: “Bro refers to his compositions as ‘moods and textures’, and bassist Thomas Morgan and drummer Joey Baron freely explore these vistas with endless freedom.”
“As a group, we’ve been working more on ideas based around different time feelings as well as steady pulses,” Bro says.
Those “pulses” are the essence of the trio’s dialogue. Melodies erupt as if already written, many sounding oddly familiar.
