Biography

The Underground Mafia Trío features an unusual lineup of trombone, double bass and drums. The band was born in 2009 out of the need to find a perfect balance between written music and improvisation. Along the group’s creative process, sheet music serves as a starting or ending point and is always subject to modifications that may result from collective improvisation. The trio’s sound is influenced by jazz as much as by rock. Its members are: trombonist Francisco Salgado, drummer Hernán Rodríguez and double bass player Iván Viaggio.
