Drawing inspiration from their shared love of the classic salsa sound pioneered by Fania Records in 1970s New York, and given a twist by their own individual musical personalities, TRYPL created Phantasticus - an album of joyously uplifting music.

Even in today's tech dominated times, there's no substitute for the magic that happens when master musicians come together in real time, and musicians don't come much more masterful than the UK based Trevor Mires (trombone), Ryan Quigley (trumpet) and Paul Booth (sax and flute).

Individually, each one is known as a first-call player capable of handling any type of musical situation, and their personal credits are simply too long to list. They've collaborated on a wide range of projects and session work, including recent live, recording, and touring work with jazz-funk globetrotters Incognito and the American guitarist Robben Ford. Every now and again, their packed schedules permit them to take time out to make their own music, drawing on their shared love of the Latin jazz tradition, and whenever this happens, they're collectively known as TRYPL.

Featuring pianists Alex Wilson and Ross Stanley, guitarist Giorgio Serci, bassists Javier Fioramonti and Davide Mantovani, and Roberto Pla, Edwin Sanz and Davide Giovannini on percussion, with newcomer Sophie Stevenson on voice and vibraphone.

The album is packed with memorable moments from the principals and their supporting cast, but overall it's the feeling of spontaneous creation and a shared joy in the art of music making that impresses.
