Francis Jacob - The Three Blind Mice

Free-flowing, dynamic, and rich in global influences, The Three Blind Mice is a mesmerizing blend of jazz, funk, and world music. Led by guitarist and composer Francis Jacob, this trio brings together decades of experience, creating an organic, deeply rhythmic, and exploratory sound.

Joined by Stomu Takeishi on bass and Gintas Janusonis on percussion, Jacob crafts compositions that feel both structured and spontaneous. Influences from West Africa, South America, and experimental jazz intertwine, with each track embracing a sense of groove and improvisation. Inspired by the band’s name, the album plays with the concept of three—using triplet rhythms, ternary forms, and three-part musical interactions to shape its distinct sonic landscape.

With its vibrant energy and intricate interplay, The Three Blind Mice is more than just an album—it’s a conversation between masterful musicians. Whether you’re a jazz lover, a groove seeker, or simply looking for something refreshingly original, this release offers an immersive and unforgettable listening experience.
