能夠輕易在 free jazz、民謠、前衛與當代古典音樂中移動的女子弦樂三重奏，這三位擁有世界水準的女音樂家 Mazz Swift (violin), Tomeka Reid (cello) ，和 Silvia Bolognesi (double bass)，分別曾與 Anthony Braxton、William Parker、Jay-Z、Kanye West 等知名藝人合作過，無論是錄音、演出等... 位置都是舉足輕重的角色，也因如此，讓 Hear in Now 的合作組合更加難得
《Not Living in Fear》為此組合的第二張專輯，同時也邀請到芝加哥爵士女伶 Dee Alexander 獻聲。
A world-caliber collective of women working in a class almost entirely their own, Hear in Now is a string trio that composes and improvises fluidly between free jazz and contemporary classical, folk music and avant-garde. Originally banded by a commission from WomaJazz in Italy, Mazz Swift (violin), Tomeka Reid (cello) and Silvia Bolognesi (double bass) came together from their homes in New York, Chicago and Siena IT to not only perform but also meet for the first time on the same date in 2009. In the 8 years since that first encounter, Hear in Now has become a rare egalitarian ensemble for the three highly active musicians, who are as often singular band leaders as they are sidewomen. In those respects, their compiled musical CV is as impressive as it is diverse – including collaborations, performances and recordings with Anthony Braxton, Nicole Mitchell, Butch Morris, William Parker, Common, Jay-Z and Kanye West – and as a unit they comprised ½ of the Roscoe Mitchell Sextet for several European shows in early 2017. Not Living in Fear, their 2nd studio album, was engineered by Griffin Rodriguez (Icy Demons, Beirut, Modest Mouse) and Alex Inglizian (Experimental Sound Studio), and features guest vocals by Chicago jazz legend Dee Alexander.
