About
A new UK-France collaboration uniting four musicians at the forefront of contemporary improvisation, composition and performance: de Bezenac and Sharkey are best known as two thirds of the critically-acclaimed, cutting edge trioVD, the band who took ‘a sledgehammer to preconceived limitations of jazz’; and Donkey Monkey ‘draws an ink moustache on the face of international creative music’, Yuko, from the vibrant Japanese rock scene, and Eve, with her virtuosic command of the piano and deep insight into 20th century repertoire. Powerful sound collisions and moments of spine-tingling stillness combine with influences from gamelan, musique concrète, experimental rock and electronica.
