At such moments the Trio move into 'rewind mode', exploring short stray echoes of blues, jazz chords, Latin rhythms, sometimes progressing to sustained melodic passages.

Tom Wheatley is a young bassist who focuses very much on placement and timing – frequently eschewing the obvious in favour of more oblique insertions into musical space.
