Album Notes

The Axis Trio is comprised of Amino Belyamani (piano), Sam Minaie (bass), and Qasim Naqvi (drums). With roots in Pakistan, Morocco, and Iran, the kinship of Axis is both musical and cultural. Collectively, the members of Axis Trio have performed with Charlie Haden, Joe LaBarbera, Larry Koonse, Butch Morris, Vinny Golia, Peter Erskine, Ravi Coltrane, Peter Epstein, Reggie Workman, Don Byron, Brandon Ross, Albert \"Tootie\" Heath, Houman Pourmehdi, Alfred Ladzepko, and Al Ustad Aashish Khan, to name a few.
