The trio formed, at the suggestion of Xavier Charles, to play at the 1999 Musique Action in Vandoeuvrve, and has since toured France and Switzerland and played the Victoriaville (Canada), LMC (UK), GMEA (France) and Huddersfield Contemporary (UK) festivals.

"There are moments where the grain of acoustic sound takes on the metallic colour one associates with the electronic, in the process redefining the idea of sonic modernity, disproving the idea that it can only be provided by new technology.
They illustrate acoustic instrumentation's capability for self renewal, and it's ability to create moment-to-moment uncertainty, the mystery of human breath becoming electronic."
Nick Cain, Opprobrium Magazine.

In May 2005 the trio spent a week working with sound diffusionist Laurent Sassi at Groupe de Music Electroacoustique d'Albi.
Some of the results are on the cd Albi Days.
This project, involving multiple microphone and speaker use, is currently planning some 4-tet performances.
