+ artist informationStéphan Oliva made his great comeback to the trio's formula that propelled him to the forefront of the scene in the 1990s and 2000s. In collaboration with Sébastien Boisseau, one of the most active double bass players on the European scene, they chose to invite Tom Rainey, a key drummer on the lively New York jazz scene.
Oliva, Boisseau and Rainey are familiar with the triangular exchanges that have marked their paths. They have played with different masters of the piano-bass drum trio such as Paul Motian, Fred Hersch, Kenny Werner, Joachim Kühn...
It is therefore not surprising that these three most experienced musicians choose the queen formula of jazz orchestras to combine and share their experiences, their conceptions of sound, dreams, power or drama
After a magnificent recording session at Studio La Buissonne last July, the trio's international launch and focus on "Orbit" is scheduled for March 2019 with the release of an album on the excellent label Yolk Records.

ALBUM "Morose" (Self Sabotage Records, 2018)
"The Young Mothers second release 'Morose' (a loving protest album) is recorded and produced at the legendary Sugar Hill Recording Studios in Houston Texas (Lightnin' Hopkins, Beyoncé). A Hip Hop, Punk, and Afrobeat influenced Free Jazz album by a band that's fully aware of the musically and politically necessities of these times; the album is collaboratively composed and pulling all of the bands influences together. This is what Jazz means to me in this time and age." - Ingebrigt Håker Flaten
