They have performed alongside musicians like Kassa Overall, Ravi Coltrane, Maurice “Mobetta” Brown and others.

This concert promises a captivating exploration of sound, pushing the boundaries of contemporary jazz. Concertgoers are encouraged to bring a beach chair and a picnic to enjoy the evening under the stars.
