TRYPL is a UK based Latin Jazz outfit co-founded by the horn section consisting of Trevor Mires, Ryan Quigley and Paul Booth. This is new and fresh original music, penned by these three esteemed musicians, joined by powerhouses Alex Wilson (piano), Dimitris Christopoulos (bass), Edwin Sanz (percussion), Tristan Banks (drums) and Davide Giovannini (drums). Here’s what they have to say about it:
“Having had the immense pleasure of doing many recordings and gigs together as a horn section, it soon transpired that we had all spent many of our formative years as professional musicians touring and recording with many great salsa, boogaloo, and merengue bands, both in the UK and around the world. This, combined with our love for the latin-jazz idiom, the fast paced, high Impact and groovy seed for TRYPL was born.
We were lucky enough to record at the legendary Wincraft studios, Steve Winwood’s private recording studio. It’s a beautiful location, set in the picturesque countryside of the Cotswolds and it provided the perfect, inspirational setting to make and record music along with some of our favourite musician friends. We each penned a few tracks. Some were written many weeks prior to the recording date and others were written between recording, eating, sleeping and drinking.
