Raga Bop Trio
George Brooks (sax, composer), Prasanna (guitar) and Steve Smith (drums/konokol).

Drummer Steve Smith, saxophonist George Brooks, and guitarist Prasanna -­ three remarkable musical talents expressing a distinctly twenty-first century perspective on global music collaboration - have collaborated on a new recording entitled Raga Bop Trio. Steve Smith, George Brooks and Prasanna will release Raga Bop Trio in June 2010 on the AbstractLogix label. They will tour together as The Raga Bop Trio during July, November and December 2010.

The music of The Raga Bop Trio is unique in that the group’s direction is grounded in jazz, with its focus on groove, atmosphere and harmonic adventure, yet also deeply rooted in the rhythmic and melodic traditions of Indian classical music.
