    RADDIG-54

    Artist: indigone Trio & Strings

    Label: Ropeadope

    Indigone Trio was formed at Montreal's McGill University in 2003, and grew to be the compositional outlet for pianist David Ryshpan and bassist Alex Mallett, with Liam O'Neill on drums. In addition to original compositions, Indigone incorporated songs from artists as varied as Björk to Ornette Coleman, Paul Simon to Djavan. They were the only Canadian student group invited to perform at the 2006 International Association of Jazz Education conference in New York. After being inspired by a senior year arranging assignment, Indigone gave a recital in March 2006 of music composed and arranged for the trio and string quartet; it was recorded by Andrew Mullin and was subsequently released as the Indigone Trio & Strings EP in December 2007. After the EP's warm reception from Ropeadope, eMusic editors and curious listeners, Ryshpan and Mallett took the group (with new drummer Philippe Melanson) into Montreal's Studio 270 to re-record the six tunes from the EP along with four new pieces - three by Ryshpan, one by Mallett - for their full-length album, Cycles. David and Phil are now in-demand freelance musicians in Montreal, and Alex has recently moved to New York City.

    RADDIG-24

    Artist: Indigone Trio & Strings

    Label: Ropeadope Digital

    The Montreal-based Indigone Trio plays a striking brand of modern acoustic jazz, using repertoire spanning from Paul Simon to Ornette Coleman, original compositions and standards. Since their formation as a McGill University student group in 2003, the trio has been exploring and expanding their personal and collective musical visions. As a group, they have accompanied great Canadian saxophonist Kirk MacDonald, and have performed widely in the Montreal area. In January 2006, they were the only Canadian student group invited to perform at the International Association of Jazz Education (IAJE) conference in New York City. Their music is influenced by their peers and heroes, ranging from the jazz tradition and classical world to the recent developments of rock, soul and electronica.
