TMC Spring Sessions 2010

After the release of our debutalbum 'Mozaic' at Paradiso Amsterdam last January, we continued at three great festivals where we shared our vibe, live in concert ! Starting off at the NuMoon Festival, we cruised on towards the 26th MusicMeeting. Joined by Erik Truffaz we played a 60 minute set in front of a massive crowd, improvising and pumping the TMC vibes into a dreamy collage of colors. We closed the spring sessions at reknown Dunya Festival in Rotterdam, which was an excellent finish.

Summer is coming up and we will have some surprises for you. Meanwhile you can check out images of the gigs and you can listen to the complete MusicMeeting gig with Erik Truffaz on NPS Radio 6 and some clips from our Numoon gig on NPS Cultura TV. We will work on a couple of new grooves coming period to return soon enough. Enjoy the sun and see you soon !
