Austrian Jazz Ensemble with influences from all over the world has been founded in June 2018.

 

All the songs that we wanna play have one main thing in common:

They were written during holiday or any band tournee telling a story of a special and intimate moment or Impressions of different landscapes as for example some hidden bay or steep clipp in the South of Great Britain, exotic gardens in Spain and Italy, monumental beauty in Paris, Florence, Prague, Berlin, Lisboa, Dubrovnik or even New York City, etc.

 

A cool and freshy mixture of Modern Swing, Second Line, Bossa Nova, Afro Cuban, Soft Funk, Jazzwaltz and Ballad played by four talented, most ambitious and professional musicians of Vienna Jazz Scene. More details about the band members down below......
