Forming Sweet Defeat composer and multi-instrumentalist Tom Wouters (Flat Earth Society, Crap Squeezer, Flick Flack Bat) gathered congenial minds with gitarist Bert Dockx (Flying Horseman, Dans Dans, Score Man, Strand) and cellist Lode Vercampt (Kris Defoort, duo with Bart Maris) for a rather atypical trio. Together they create 'chamber jazz and beyond', which you might just as well take literally. Or how composition, surprise and tension can be synonymous. No well-trodden paths, but astonishing and above all adventurous music.
