*. EOL Trio .*

Album: End Of Line (2012)
Genre: Jazz Rock Fusion (Prog Rock/Exp.)  /  France

Even though all the compositions of this second album were written by the pianist and keyboard player Denis Girard, Eol Trio sounds truly like a trio – not like a composer playing with his sidemen. The 66.66% left of this extraordinary trio is made of Laurent David (playing the bass guitar) and Xavier Girard on drums. We may define their music as “progressive jazz rock”. We can name influences such as the E.S.T , Medeski & Wood, Emerson Lake & Palmer… But we can also take the time to enjoy the tunes, the amazing beat, the intimate atmosphere, the smart improvisation and the sounds (of the bass guitar and the keyboard). This band isn’t quite from the planet Earth. Far from usual clichés and trends, a new world to discover, if you haven’t already had! (www.facebook.com)
