Made up of members who are widely known through their association with the GRAMMY-winning jazz-funk group Snarky Puppy, the trio of Zach Brock, Bob Lanzetti, and Keita Ogawa formed their new group during the COVID-19 pandemic, bringing together an eclectic mix of jazz, folk, experimental, ambient, groove, and world music, bound with a healthy dose of improvisation. Their debut album, Drawing Songs, was released in November 2023 on GroundUp Music.
“One of the notable post-millennial voices in jazz violin” (All About Jazz), Zach Brock was the winner of DownBeat’s 2013 Critics Poll for Rising Star Violinist and has collaborated with bass legend Stanley Clarke and trombonist Wycliffe Gordon in addition to his extensive work as a leader.

Nagasaki, Japan-born Keita Ogawa moved to the U.S. in 2005 and has become one of the most in-demand percussionists on the global scene, working with Bokanté, Cécile McLorin Salvant, Yo-Yo Ma, Banda Magda, Charlie Hunter, and Maria Schneider.
Made up of members who are widely known through their association with the GRAMMY-winning jazz-funk group Snarky Puppy, this trio brings together an eclectic mix of jazz, folk, experimental, ambient, groove, and world music.
