Event Description
Vancouver-based Malleus Trio is an exciting instrumental band that seamlessly weaves together high-octane improvisation with original compositions executed by a musical rapport forged over more than a decade. Sought-after players in their own right, the members of Malleus Trio remain active in various bands from distinctly different genres (Boom Booms, Pugs and Crows, and Coco Jafro). This palpable chemistry pulses through a music that is unconventional yet accessible. They released their acclaimed debut album in 2017, and their follow up record, Play Nice, is a collection of songs that showcase their exemplary skills and remarkable scope. The trio will celebrate the release of the album at many summer jazz festivals, including TD JazzFest 2023. With this new record in hand, Malleus Trio map new terrain for open-minded ears.

It doesn’t so much swing as drive, and there is no question this is a trio who can light up a venue on stage.” – The Vancouver Sun
