Charley Rose uses the tenor saxophone as a narrative engine: sharp phrasing, sudden lyricism, and effects that warp the sonic texture. Alongside Enzo Carniel (piano, synth, MS20) and Ariel Tessier (drums), the trio blends avant-garde jazz with a Stravinskian sense of form and raw rock energy.

On stage, they shift from deep grooves to pure abstraction, breaking structures only to fuse them back together with Dadaist humor and formidable rhythmic precision. Their improvisations open doors without ever losing the pulse or the story. This is a trio that plays and listens at 100%, turning risk into pleasure. Following their acclaimed debut, Dada Pulp (2023) solidifies their signature sound. Jazz Migration #7 winners, they have performed at Jazz in Marciac and Jazz des 5 Continents, with a Canadian tour planned for June 2026.
