The Tree Trini Collective is an experimental project coming out of the sonic music space of the sister island nation of Trinidad and Tobago. This trio centers the not often discussed long history of experimenting with music that lies at the core of the musical practices of T&T. Such includes the engaging of environments, through playing bamboo and steel, which ultimately led to the creation of the steel drum. Tree Trini Collective reimagines the T&T’s musical diaspora into futures unknown.
There will be a brief conversation with the artists, moderated by Amber M. Henry.
