House of Waters is a dynamic world music trio that defies conventional genre boundaries with its captivating and exploratory sounds. At the core of their sonic identity is the hammered dulcimer virtuoso Max ZT, known for his innovative playing style that melds classical tradition with pioneering techniques. Accompanied by the percussive mastery of Luke Notary and the melodically rich electric bass lines of Moto Fukushima, House of Waters creates a lush and intricate soundscape that is both globally inspired and refreshingly modern.

Their music is an amalgamation of cultural influences, drawing from a deep well of jazz, folk, and classical music from around the globe, all the while incorporating elements of improvisation and complex rhythms. Albums like "On Becoming" and the self-titled "House of Waters" showcase their knack for composing intricate melodies that resonate with emotion and challenge the status quo. Their ability to seamlessly blend musical genres has led to a collection of works that are not just listened to but experienced, such as their film-inspired pieces "Le Voyage Dans La Lune," "Ballet Mécanique," and "Ménilmontant." With critical acclaim and a dedicated fan base, House of Waters continues to push boundaries and expand their musical horizons, inviting listeners on a unique and enchanting journey with each performance and recording.
