The music of this trio draws its inspiration from the deep tradition of Celtic melodies thanks to the Icelandic harpist Marie Hamilton. This self-taught virtuoso brilliantly explores oriental and classical sounds thanks to the magic of her harp. The Cuban Diomer Gonzales who provides the percussions as well as the Cameroonian artist Just Wôan who is on the electric bass and the vocal lead are perfectly grafted to this harmonic fusion that is both rhythmic and melodious, soft and catchy, and even languorous when their soft voices arise delicately on the melodies of the harp and the atypical rhythms that Just Wôan produces with his bass or his guitar while he sings.
The trio is working on a record that will be released in 2022 under the productions Miss-Meuré label.
