INFO


Ghent's Steige r are a piano trio, but not in the classical sense. With their versatile style, influenced by different musical genres such as jazz, rock, pop, classical and el ectronic music, they try to find a balance between composition and improvisation through the use of experimentation and electronics.

Considered pione ers of the Belgian jazz crossover scene, Steiger have been active for 6 years an d have recently found themselves performing at major jazz venues in Flanders, pi cking up numerous accolades along the way.

The trio's highly anticipa ted sophomore album 'Give Space', released 14th September on Sdban Ultra, was re corded at 7 different locations, with the music composed to fit and fight these locations within a dialogue of acoustics, atmospheres and appetition. Field reco rdings, reverbs, ambient sounds, all collected within the search for the unpredi ctable, were given space within this dialogue as the essential part of the encou nter. As a result, the locations emerge somewhat as a fourth member of the trio. The music - sometimes fixed, sometimes completely free - takes on an ever-chang ing journey into their multi-faceted world.
