Approach

The way TRIO perform its music is often concept album style. The songs follow a theme and TRIO performs them often as a single piece.

Music

TRIO is an acronym for "The Rhythm Is Odd", referring to the strange time signature that is the core in their music. Their music is based on odd time signature grooves, often referred to as odd meter. Examples include 9/8 or 13/8 rhythms. Their music also has some psychedelic influences, reminiscent of the mid-1960s Canterbury scene.
