The trio, founded in 2010 by János Ávéd, a prominent representative of the youngest generation of Hungarian saxophonists, is a tight collaboration of three musicians, depicting the present time with a line-up of saxophone-guitar-drums, balancing the deliberate absence of a bass instrument by free use of formal and musicals means. Their sometimes quite surprising use of different musical themes drawn from mainstream roots through classical and contemporary music up to even post-rock is sort of a trademark of their music. A memorable example of this was their successful concert at the Palace of Arts in 2013, sharing the stage with their guest, US sax player David Binney.

Further members of the trio are also outstanding figures of the young generation. Guitarist Márton Fenyvesi, awarded with the Junior Prima prize, is leader and/or member of several Hungarian jazz outfits. Winner of the Vilmos Jávori Drummer Contest, Ákos Benkó is a solid pillar of different groups, he played at the Opus Jazz Club several times with groups of Gábor Juhász, Tamara Mózes, or Csaba Czirják, among others.

Comprised of the trio's two previous Opus concerts, their debut album Balance was released in last year on BMC Records.
