ABOUT
Take one part Bluegrass fiddling and combine with Classical technique and compositional chops, add a range of improvisation, especially Jazz flavor, and you might get a recipe for the Orange Mighty Trio’s fresh new music. The Minneapolis-based instrumentalists define themselves with the tongue-in-cheek term “bluegrassical,” and use humor, spontaneity and onstage interaction to capture a growing audience for their adventurous violin, piano and bass pairing.
The Trio received acclaim for their self-titled EP, and has followed up with the June 2009 release, “Infrastructure.” The album draws its theme and tune titles from transportation, a wry nod to the many traditional fiddle tunes about roads and travel. Kris Swanberg’s film, “It Was Great But I Was Ready to Come Home,” featured music from the new album. The group plans to score husband Joe Swanberg’s new film, “Silver Bullets,” currently in production.
