Album Description

Hue Blanes, Ben Hanlon, and Daniel Farrugia have been playing as a trio everytime the stars align, and the soup is right. Their first jazz trio album is an exploration of the musical concept 'contrafact'. A contrafact is a composition that uses the chord progressions of an existing tune. ‘Autumn Nightmares’ is the only contrafact of the album. ‘What’ll I do’, a fake contrafact. The other compositions belong somewhere along those two extremes of that musical concept. Monk swung it, this trio played it straight.
