PHOTO BY JOURNEY GROUP

Bassist Ranaan composes most of the trio’s original music, but all three members help to arrange pieces for performance, adapting musical works and incorporating their diverse interests and influences, which accounts for the group’s eclectic style. Since its inception, Tf3 has performed more than a thousand engagements, including concerts at Carnegie Hall, jazz clubs, European music festivals, NFL games, the Indy 500, and alongside symphony orchestras worldwide. In addition, the trio is committed to reaching younger audiences and participates in numerous educational residencies and outreach programs each year. The group is also active in the fight against bullying. In 2011, they released “Stronger,” a powerful anti-bullying music video set to their own arrangement of music by Daft Punk and Kanye West.
