„Hover Trout is a Berlin-based trio mining the saxophone-bassdrums seam of classic jazz, shot through with veins of indie rock and Americana.”
Cormac Larkin, The Irish Times
Hover Trout is a collaborative Berlin-based trio comprised of Canadian saxophonist Jonathan Lindhorst, his fellow countryman Sly Juhas on drums, and American bassist Matt Adomeit. As a band, they are firm believers in walking the line between familiarity and strangeness. Their use of recognizable elements manifests itself in melodic and groovy music which harkens back to bygone eras; from the jazz of the ‘20s to the singer-songwriters and indie rock of the 90’s.
It is Hover Trout’s desire to constantly explore the uncharted boundaries of music through creative improvisation primarily using quirky original compositions with a sense of abandon that gives their music its true emotional poignancy.
