Tomas Fujiwara’s Triple Double is an exploratory jazz sextet that features a powerhouse team of forward-thinking musicians: Tomas and Gerald Cleaver on drums, Mary Halvorson and Brandon Seabrook on guitars, and Ralph Alessi and Taylor Ho Bynum on trumpet/cornet. With each instrument doubled, the group operates as two separate trios. These two trios play off of each other, uniting and diverging as together they explore the complex landscape of Fujiwara’s compositions.
