Trio 3 was a collaborative American jazz group whose members were saxophonist Oliver Lake, bassist Reggie Workman, and drummer Andrew Cyrille. The trio existed for roughly 35 years: the musicians first played together in the late 1980s,[1] and the group disbanded in February 2022.[2][3] During this time they recorded eleven albums, some of which featured guest pianists.[4][5] The musicians described their sound as "futuristic music within the idiomatic continuum of jazz."[6]
