TGB Trio

It could also mean „The best band”, but in this case the abbreviation just refers to the instruments (in Portuguese): Tuba, Guitarras and Bateria (drums). The TGB is a trio formed in 2003 by some of Portugal’s most respected musicians. Their first album, ‘Tuba, Guitarras e Bateria’, was released in 2004 on Clean Feed Records. Since then they have remained loyal to the well-known label, releasing ‘Evil Things’ in 2010, ‘III’ in 2019 and ‘Room 4’ in 2024. With their last two albums, they could no longer be defined as an unusual instrumentation consisting of a tuba, a guitar and a drum, or even as a fusion trio. They came out with their own music without borders. They mixed jazz, rock, folk, country and more. TGB have expanded their horizons in such a way and with such distinctive results that they have transcended all qualifiers and reinvented their own space as an ode to the freedom of musical creation. Everything from seeking pleasure in a shared experience to challenging expectations serves the purpose of this adventure.
