Chamber 3 renews an ongoing international collaboration between Seattle drummer Matt Jorgensen and German guitarist Christian Eckert. Since meeting in New York at the New School for Jazz & Contemporary Music in the early '90s, they have continued their musical relationship through the years with multiple projects, including the organ trio NY3 and tours in the U.S. and Europe. Here they team with the dynamic German saxophonist Steffen Weber for explorations through compositions and musical sketches that highlight their collective group aesthetic. In addition to the 3, they are joined on "Grassroots" by Seattle bassist Phil Sparks.

Auf Grassroots erneuern Chamber 3 die beständige internationale Zusammenarbeit des Drummers Matt Jorgensen und Gitarristen Christian Eckert und tun sich mit dem dynamischen, deutschen Saxophonisten Steffen Weber und den Bassisten Phil Sparks zusammen. Gemeinsam gehen die Musiker auf Erkundungstour durch Kompositionen und musikalische Skizzen, die besonders ihre kollektive Ensembleästhetik betonen.
