David Binney, one of the most talented and creative musicians in the international Jazz scene, is coming back to China with his Tres Tierras. Tres Tierras was formed by David, Stefano Tamborrino and Louis Cole in Los Angeles, California, in 2016.

David met Stefano in Florence, Italy, where they played in Simone Graziano's Frontal group together. David has known Louis Cole for about 7 years. They met in L.A. and have collaborated on many projects together.

David resides and works in New York City. He travels the world with many different projects. He also produces records and is responsible for putting together and producing the Donny McCaslin Group that became David Bowie's “Blackstar” group. Together they are Tres Tierras.

Cuong Vu is widely recognized by jazz critics as a leader of a generation of innovative musicians. A truly unique musical voice, Cuong has lent his trumpet playing talents to a wide range of artists including Pat Metheny, Laurie Anderson, David Bowie, Dave Douglas, and Myra Melford.

Stomu Takeishi is an experimental jazz bassist, generally playing fretless five-string electric bass guitar, as well as a Klein five-string acoustic bass guitar. Often using looping or other electronic techniques to enhance the sound of his instrument, Stomu has been widely acclaimed for his musical “soundscaping” abilities and foundational yet generative improvisational approach.

After graduating from the Eastman School of Music in 2003, drummer Ted Poor moved to New York City, where he has made a deep impression on the jazz and improvised music scene. Modern Drummer describes his playing as “adventurous, truly dynamic, and forward-thinking.” This unique approach has caught the ears of many of jazz’s most established musicians and quickly placed him amongst those drummers most in demand.
