“The threesome navigated through a wider landscape of sound with meandering lyrical passages, encircling eerie plateaus and sudden about- turns into wild abysses triggering raucous rides and accumulation of sound that went hazy and eventually dissolved, giving leeway to bouncing, hard hitting maneuvers.”

-HENNING BOLTE, All About Jazz 

Since 2014, the collective Grdina-Houle-Loewen has forged a new stream of complex compositions that meld together density, ferocious energy and technical virtuosity. The group's versatility and wide dynamic range has become finely honed, creating an ensemble that can change course dramatically.  The trio has collaborated with a who’s who of the international improvisation scene, and has toured across Canada, the USA, and Europe.

In the past ten years, the trio has performed in Canada, Italy, France, Belgium, the USA, and Poland. In Fall 2019, they toured Canada, playing the music of well-known composer Linda Bouchard.
