Album lore

Triological, issued by Sunnyside in April 2026, gathers bassist Ben Allison, guitarist Steve Cardenas, and saxophonist Ted Nash in a trio format that veers between jazz and ambient jazz with hints of big band phrasing. The set comprises ten pieces, including the featured “Milton,” where the interplay of instruments carves out spacious dialogue amid subtle rhythmic shifts. The recording unfolds with a measured restraint, underscoring each player’s distinct voice while maintaining a cohesive group sound.Noteworthy are titles such as “Burnt Toast & Avocado” and “Fellas with Umbrellas,” which suggest an unpretentious approach to composition, favoring mood and texture over traditional formality. With under two thousand scrobbles on Last.fm, Triological remains a quietly compelling artifact for those attuned to nuanced modern jazz sessions.
