Lid Trio

Welcome to the world of Lid Trio.
I hope you enjoy these tunes. Currently they are all instrumentals. That will change shortly.

Lid Trio's music is a combination of everything. Lately it would be classified as "Rock". But that's not all there is. Life throws so much at you sometimes, and it's hard to express. It's best expressed in music.
The music really expands when you play with other musicians. Lid Trio has collaborated with artists such as Mountaindawg and Tom Fleming.

Music is ever changing, and you will notice changes in the future.
