Smarton Trio + 1

The band's second album, Smarton trio + 1 was released in december 2008. After the first cool and jazzy trio album (I don't know yet, 2006), the band is going on with more intense and energic rocky sounds, space bossa, chewin' gum-surf, or smooth psychedelics, while keeping the freedom of jazz improvisation. The music has live partying aspects and more introspective, like film-music aspects too. ----- quot;A girl came to me after a gig and she said she liked itquot;, says Márton Süto guitarist, while enumerating the endless successes of the band. They had concerts at prestigious hungarian venues like the Palace of Arts, the A38 ship, the Sziget festival. They also made the 1st part of renown Ninja Tune artist Bonobo in october 2008 at Merlin Klub, Budapest. They played at Pizza Express (Soho, London) and were broadcasted by BBC HD Jazz Shorts. ----- Budapest-based jazz-rock jam band - with a distinct 1960s Cream/Yardbirds vibe thanks to spacey guitarist Márton Süto - play smoldering riff-laden, Hammond-led grooves. (Time Out London) ----- Smarton Trio's style is a unique mix of hippy rock, bluesy jazz, deconstructed pop and free improvisation. They define their musical output as 'jazz, chewin' gum pop, surf rock, space bossa music!' Full of an emotional, cerebral and dynamic content, their music has already captivated a wide audience varying from jazz purists to electro addicts.
