Press review
“L’ivresse saxophonienne vous la dénicherez, rampante, vibrante, et incarnée, dans le dernier album de la formation franco-belge Gratitude Trio, BIRTH, macramé musical d’émulsions électro-accoustiques d’où jaillissent des étincelles qui donnent à cet album de jazz méditatif des allures de feu de joie sous la pluie.” Samuel Heyndrickx, Radio Pays d’Hérault, August 11th 2022.
