Rabbit Hole is an international trio led by saxophonist Pauli Lyytinen, where the musical visions of three creative and bold explorers come together. The group’s debut album Rabbit Hole will be released on the Eclipse Music label on January 9, 2026. In this electro acoustic ensemble, Lyytinen operates saxophone, ewi, drum machine, and effects; Norwegian musician Andreas Løwe plays processed piano and synthesisers; and drummer Tatu Rönkkö provides the rhythmic foundation. From this rabbit hole emerges a lush sonic landscape that merges rich compositions, complex rhythmic textures, and imaginative improvisations. The trio’s guiding motto is Lewis Carroll’s well-known line from Alice in Wonderland:
"Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast."
"Rabbit Hole is a strikingly full EP whose three parts form their own worlds—and yet parts of the same one. The music is both a key and a mirror through which the Finnish-Norwegian-Swiss trio will hopefully journey to many more places."
