DE BEREN GIEREN

 

In the space between expectation and surprise you will find De Beren Gieren, providing robust evidence that gold can still be mined from the union of piano, bass and drums. The band has released six records - and counting - in their almost twelve-year career.

ECHOES OF ZOO

 

Echoes Of Zoo is a band with a unique sound, under the high tension of Middle Eastern rock music with the striking complexity of West African percussion and a few Dub flavors, all in the service of psychedelic jazz played with a punk attitude!

ESINAM

 

Multi-instrumentalist Esinam Dogbatse succesfully blends her soulful voice with traditional African percussion, adding here and there some electronic influences combined with sensible melodies and flute improvisations. She plays both solo as 'one woman band' as with her full band.

NABOU
CLAERHOUT

 

Trombone player and composer Nabou Claerhout brings a unique new sound to the European jazz scene, thanks to her refreshing trombone sound, innovative effects and original approach of compositions. With her quartet N∆BOU, solo or in other formations: always grasping.

STEIGER
 

This trio eagerly explores the outer margins of jazz and dive into other universes (contemporary music, electronica, pop, free improvisation, …), but basically also remain faithful to the genre’s long-standing core principle; that of a flexible transformation.
