BIO
The Orange Mighty Trio plays their own special brand of “hybrid” chamber music. It may contain fiddle, jazz or pop-inspired elements, from sweeping melodies to intricate interweaving parts. They dance on the line between spontaneity and composition and the Trio members
often surprise each other in performance, thriving on interplay and always full of energy. Audiences enjoy watching the particular structures and moods of the night unfold, with a mix of humor, virtuosity and adventure that will be a little different each time. Formed in 2006, the Trio has performed widely and has composed scores for numerous indie film
