Trio 99 → 00 is an album by Pat Metheny, as Paul Methany Trio, recorded with Larry Grenadier on bass and Bill Stewart on drums, and released in 2000. (The album title is often listed as "Trio 99 > 00" or "Trio 99>00".)

This trio came together as Metheny finished a two-year stretch of recording and touring around the world with his regular group. For his "vacation" period, Metheny decided to find a few like-minded younger players and continue once again to expand on his unique vision of what a guitar-led, improvisationally-driven, three-piece ensemble could suggest within this modern culture of music.[2]

During recording, the trio "spent just a couple of days together in the studio, just for a few hours a day, just playing", according to Metheny. They did not even listen back to anything until a few weeks later.[3]

Metheny won the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Instrumental Solo for "(Go) Get It."
