Garage A Trois: Power Patriot

Read "Power Patriot" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

The music of Garage A Trois is located somewhere on the map between do-it-yourself punk fusion and hip-hop jamband. The current lineup replaces guitarist Charlie Hunter, heard on Outre Mer (Telarc, 2006) and Emphasizer (Tone Cool, 2003), with keyboardist Marco Benevento. The effect is to push the music more towards saxophonist Skerik's prior efforts in the ...

Garage A Trois: Outre Mer

Read "Outre Mer" reviewed by Michael McCaw

by Michael McCaw

Garage a Trois, a quartet consisting of Mike Dillon, Charlie Hunter, Skerik, and Stanton Moore, recorded Outre Mer live with no overdubs: no small feat given its buoyantly dense sound. And although the name of the band doesn't quite fit the number of musicians, they combine elements found in each of their solo projects to form ...

Garage a Trois: Outre Mer

Read "Outre Mer" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

Film music has its own sets of demands, often required to elevate the emotional content of the cinematic story while at the same time seamlessly blending so that it doesn't dominate. And while scores can literally define the mood of a film at their best--think Hitchcock's Psycho--and some only work in conjunction with the films for ...

Garage A Trois: Outre Mer

Read "Outre Mer" reviewed by Stephen Latessa

by Stephen Latessa

Garage A Trois' Outre Mer is the soundtrack to an as yet unreleased French film of the same name. The band, consisting of Mike Dillon (percussion, vibraphone), Charlie Hunter (eight-string guitar, pandero), Stanton Moore (drums, polyrhythms), and Skerik (saxophone), lays down surging funk-influenced tunes, tempered by the intricate delicacy of vibraphone and guitar. The ...

Garage a Trois: Emphasizer

Read "Emphasizer" reviewed by AAJ Staff

by AAJ Staff

Three of the four players in Garage a Trois are West Coasters, which helps explain the free-wheeling home-brewed funk that pervades Emphasizer. It's only appropriate that New Orleans also make its contribution in the form of drummer Stanton Moore, a viciously adept guardian of the groove. The year-old addition of percussionist/vibraphonist Mike Dillon represents an upgrade ...

Garage a Trois: Emphasizer

Read "Emphasizer" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

When was the last time you had fun listening to a jazz record? I’m not talking about the seriousness of the neo-conservative suit-and-tie hard bopper syndrome, people who perform the “listen to this music, it’s good for you” kind. Nor the avant “we don’t expect (want) you to understand or actually like our ...
