Borderlands Trio, the collective effort of bassist Stephan
Crump, pianist Kris Davis and drummer Eric McPherson,
has luck on its side. Less than a year old, its chemistry is
unusually deep. And while I don’t often use the term, it’s also
a band that boasts a bit of magic. ...
The album title Asteroida is the Latin term for starfish – a
creature that can regenerate parts of itself whenever need
be. That idea resonates with Crump because of the trio’s abi-
lity to steadily develop new landscapes, and the Stephan
Crump reminds that the word starfish conjures notions of
both the ocean and outer space. ‘Gravity, magnetism, con-
stellations, nature. With this band, we’re always expanding
and contracting, recontextualizing what’s around us and
heading for the instantly inevitable.’...
Ultimately Asteroidea is a treatise on immediacy and a deep
dive into the spectrum of responses made by any one
gesture. Pay close attention. Its grooves are always mor-
phing, its drama boasts moments of whimsy, and its creators
are just getting started. Jim Macnie, from the liner notes
Das BorderlandsTrio startete vor einem Jahr mit Konzer-

Stephan Crump, der die Band Rhombal und Rosetta leitet
