This jazz trio came into being at the encounter of Michel Renault, classical bassist of the "Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse", Laurent Petit, who fell for big band music at an early age and played with Ornicar, and Vincent Choblet, for a long time already a student of traditional percussion in Africa, Brazil, the Caribbean Islands, especially Cuba, in their local contexts and their original form. The characteristic of the trio and our passion for jazz have determined our choice of "spicy" evergreens.
