Being his main source of inspiration and breathing jazz daily, Ștefan (keys) decided to create his first trio, trying to express his feelings and musical beliefs. That’s how MINDTHEGAP Trio started, by inviting two professional musicians, Alex Cioată (bass) and Tamas Iszlai (drums) to join this new musical project.

Since their formation, MINDTHEGAP Trio has quickly gained recognition, performing at prestigious events like Gărâna Jazz Festival, Electric Castle, DWMT Sessions, Jazzup Nobile and even within the historic walls of the Fortified Church in Biertan.
