trioflux Trio Flux Portland Trio Flux is the collaborative effort of three talented Portland musicians, Neil Mattson (guitar), Julio Appling (bass), and Adam Ochshorn (drums). The trio brings together a wide array of musical moods and textures, stretching the bounds of the traditional guitar-bass-drums jazz trio. Trio Flux, as the name suggests, adeptly moves through its funky grooves, its dark and distorted rock gestures, to its twangy free-jazz improvisations with a focus on musical dialogue between the three. The band strives to have a unique sound but doesn’t deny its influences. Guitarist Neil Mattson’s compositions betray his listening habits, Ornette Coleman, Bill Frisell, Herbie Hancock, Charlie Haden, and Pat Metheny, to name a few. trioflux’s tracks May 12th by trioflux published on 2013-05-07T21:05:53Z Cage Free by trioflux published on 2013-05-07T20:53:13Z Tribute by trioflux published on 2013-05-07T20:24:00Z The Nardis by trioflux published on 2013-05-07T20:07:05Z Cross-Walk by trioflux published on 2013-05-07T19:01:56Z For the Simple Reason Is by trioflux published on 2013-05-07T17:17:06Z Power Fade by trioflux published on 2013-05-07T16:16:16Z
