Musician

KALI Trio aren’t interested in genre. Nicolas Stocker (drums, electronics), Urs Müller (guitar) and Raphael Loher (piano, electronics) work in a world of contemporary music where ideas around minimal, ambient, jazz and electronic music are regarded as just variations of a common language. Whether working with composed or improvised material, the three musicians follow their intuition and draw on their deep and anti-ideological understanding of music history.

KALI Trio is a working band; one that works towards being a true musical and social organism. Their aim is to create a “sound cosmos”, where the sound of the whole overrides any individual musicianship. The musicians met in Lucerne. Initially, Raphael and Nicolas started as a duo. In 2015 Urs joined, to make the trio we know today.

Nik Bärtsch's Ronin Rhythm Records has become a go-to label for hypnotic groove enthusiasts.
