Enemy is a modern jazz piano trio from England composed of veteran jazzmen Kit Downes (piano), Petter Eldh (bass), and James Maddren (drums). Their crystalline, spacious sound embodies everything from intricately composed to strategically improvised harmonic statements to fiercely intense, yet focused dissonance. Their recordings and tours have endeared them to audiences and critics across Europe. Their eponymous debut appeared in 2018 on Edition Records and revealed them at the time as a hard-driving stubbornly interactive unit. 2022's Vermillion appeared from ECM, a chamber music-esque execution showcasing them contrasting composing approaches of Downes and Eldh. In April that year, the trio entered Berlin's Hansa Studios and recorded, produced, and mixed a dozen original tunes in a single day. The recordings were released as Betrayal in September 2023.
