Dave Rempis - alto/tenor/baritone saxophone

Ingebrigt Håker-Flaten- bass

Frank Rosaly - drums

The Outskirts is a free-improvising trio featuring Rempis on saxophones with Ingebrigt Håker Flaten on bass and Frank Rosaly on drums. The band formed in 2006, during Flaten’s two-year residency in Chicago. Although all three are featured in Flaten’s quintet, this group maintains a very different sound than the larger context, particularly due to Flaten and Rosaly’s use of electronics here. Since Flaten returned to Norway in the spring of 2008, the band is working less frequently, but they plan to release their first cd in the spring of 2010.
