After leading his quintet, octet and quartet for 15 years, to considerable critical acclaim, Ben Crosland, on bass, formed Threeway in 2004 with Steve Waterman on trumpet/flugelhorn and Steve Lodder on piano/keyboards, in order to explore the subtle and open possibilities of a group without drums. The interplay between the players creates a natural intensity combined with an acute sensitivity to dynamics. The variety of the original compositions, contributed by all the group members, and the different tone colours created by the instruments ensure a satisfying and well -rounded performance.
