Tether Trio is the new, genre-exploding project co-led by Grammy-nominated vocalist Theo Bleckmann and internationally renowned saxophonist Timo Vollbrecht (both from New York). Together with Amsterdam-based pianist Harmen Fraanje, they weave together explorative improvisation and melody-driven songs, allowing their music time to breathe, unfold, and claim its required space.

The trio creates their highly personal sound by blending the instruments’ natural and acoustic timbres with the discreet and tasteful use of electronic live processing.

After a joint performance for the Fajr International Music Festival in Iran in 2021, Bleckmann and Vollbrecht decided to further develop their immediate synergy and work out new music together. The resultant Tether Trio derives its name from the intertwining of musical ideas that these three free-thinking musicians merge into one.
