Las Halmas is a duo made up of a drummer from Switzerland, Trixa Arnold, and the Bassist of Ne Zhdali, Ilja Komarov.On the first of their two newest releases, they work with a 'third person' concept, inviting different musicians for each song.The second, introduces trumpetplayer Simon Dellsperger as a new band member.

" The new CD from the ... trio Las Halmas is so full of sparkling fantasy and dadaistic withat it makes one want to sail out to sea on a rocking-horse.Les Halmas have a poetic, anarchistic humour that is positvely touching." (Bierfront 2/97)
