TRIO BRAAMDEJOODEVATCHER
Michiel Braam piano, Wilbert de Joode bass, Michael Vatcher drums
‘A musically telepathic trinity’, says Dutch daily Trouw about the trio of pianist Michiel Braam, double bass player Wilbert de Joode and drummer Michael Vatcher. Braam’s catchy compositions are the points of departure for balanced improvisations by three key figures of New Dutch Swing. ‘The trio has one of the most integrated sounds heard from any such grouping. They travel the continuum from Trad to Free with ease and dexterity’ (Cadence).
