Nue Vue Trio

Piano, double bass and drums make up this Melbourne instrumental group, built around a modern take on swing-era jazz. Nue Vue Trio moves between gentle easy-listening tones and upbeat bossa nova, funk and samba grooves within the one set. The trio performs entirely live, working mostly as an instrumental act but able to back a guest vocalist or saxophonist when a booking calls for one. The repertoire suits an intimate background setting as easily as a featured, stage-front slot, with the same three players covering both roles.
