about

Burkhard Beins – percussion
Mazen Kerbaj – trumpet
Michael Vorfeld – percussion

----

Sawt Out is a trio formed on paper months before i moved to Berlin in August 2015. I contacted Michael Vorfeld and Burkhard Beins by email asking them if they would be interested by a percussion trio (and reassured them that i would play trumpet in it, not percussion!) for a gig in the Labor Sonor series that i was guest curating and they accepted. After the gig, it was clear for the three of us that this was a new band. And one of my favourite bands I may add.
The trio has been very active since, but this album is our only release so far, and the only time we ever played together outside a concert situation. Being in a studio forced us to a different approach, and the result is sometimes close to our live sets (in the first track for example) and other times quite different from anything we played before, especially in the piece "Solid Water".
