Trioscapes started in the summer of 2011 when Dan Briggs contacted Walter Fancourt and Matt Lynch about working up a rendition of the Mahavishnu Orchestra classic Celestial Terrestrial Commuters and messing around with a few original ideas with the intent of playing a one-off's how. After rehearsing the material and playing the show through the group decided the music was so demanding and fun to perform that there should be more of a future for it. a few more songs were written near the end of the summer and a full length album recorded the first week of October with Jamie King in Winston-Salem, NC.
