Trio of Bloo<\/em>m (Pyroclastic, 2025) is the first meeting of three titans of creative music, artists to whom genres and boundaries hold little meaning. You can regularly find each of them in conventional or edgy sessions, or within the turf that lies between. The term in the promotional notes is a better one – genre hybridizers. They are pianist Craig Taborn, guitarist Nels Cline<\/a>, and drummer Marcus Gilmore<\/a>, forming the rare piano-guitar-drums trio. The catalyst for this meeting is producer and poet David Breskin, a longtime collaborator with all three, and by all accounts, the go-to producer for projects on the Pyroclastic label. He thrives on putting together people who might admire each other from afar but have never played together. Taborn and Gilmore have worked together in bands led by Chris Potter and Jakob Bro, but had never creatively interacted with each other\u2019s compositions. Cline had never played with either artist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
