Born of collaboration between violinist Skye Steele, cellist Christopher Hoffman and guitarist Jay Vilnai, the trio's members draw on scrapbooks from their various travels in the New York music scene and around the world, and bring a globe-spanning variety of music into focus through the prism of the improvisational string trio. All three musicians have played with various world music and world-fusion ensembles, including Vilnai's Vampire Suit, the middle-eastern Anistar, Maracatu NY, the klezmer-punk band Midrash Mish Mosh and more. The trio plays tunes collected from all these experiences and original songs influenced by them. The chamber like ensemble allows for a new insight and different approach to these timeless melodies. The diverse repertoire inclides Bulgarian dances, Greek Rembetika, Brazilian forros, Bartok and more.
