Concerts in March: Nuremberg and Munich

On March 27th we are playing at Musikzentrale in Nuremberg, doors open at 8pm.
On March 31st, Easter Sunday, we are playing the White Noise/ Black Silence Festival at Gasteig, Munich. We are happy to be sharing the stage with Moop Mama. So when you have finished (or frustratedly called off) your Easter Egg hunt, head over to the Gasteig!
Here’s the trailer for the festival!

Prize at the BuJazzO competition 2013

We’ve been awarded the third prize for “Schnee aus Venedig” (Snow of Venice) at the Federal Jazz Orchestra of Germany (BuJazzO) Composition Contest 2013! I’m looking forward to the rehearsal in march and am curious how this great band’s interpretation of our piece will sound like. See you soon!

CD Release Concert

Happy New Year everyone!:)
We had a great CD release concert at the sold out Atomic Cafe, Munich. You can check out some pics in the gallery.
During the coming weeks we will be working on new material and are planning concerts for summer. Already confirmed is a double-gig on June 21./22. in Berlin and we are really looking forward to visit the capital!
Hope to see you around sometimes,
Cheers,
Monika

Here is an early taste of our new album

It’s called “Irrlicht” in german and means “will o the whisp” in english, and it’s kind of scary but also very gentle – out of the view of the ghost light which enjoys its play, but out of the perspective of the estray it’s a pretty fatal game. Matthias Lindermayr plays the distorted trumpet. Enjoy the journey!
