Trifecta, features 3 of the contemporary music scene’s most lauded & revered musicians – bassist & songwriter Nick Beggs, keyboardist extraordinaire Adam Holzman & completing the line-up, Craig Blundell – one of the world’s most celebrated drummers.
Having performed together as part of Steven Wilson’s band, the three would jam together after soundchecks & from these sessions the fledgling ideas for ‘Fragments’ were born. Nick Beggs comments “after the last tour with Steven finished, we had a handful of tracks ready to work on & as we moved through our various separate projects we agreed to work on Trifecta.”
The record primarily leans toward a fusion of jazz rock, being instrumental except for the first single, the wonderfully titled “Pavlov’s Dog Killed Schrodinger’s Cat”. The lyrics of which, Beggs states “are written from the perspective of a layman trying to understand quantum mechanics…and failing.”
Each band member completed the recording & engineering of their own contributions in their various home studios which helped in bringing their individual production ideas to each track. Adam Holzman mixed the record at his New York home studio & the mastering was handled by Andy VanDette (Rush, David Bowie, Deep Purple, Porcupine Tree, Beastie Boys) in New York.
Asked what fans of the musicians can expect from Trifecta he states “Fission! It’s like Fusion but less efficient & more dangerous.”
Originally released in 2021, ‘Fragments’ is available on CD via Kscope.
