Aki feat. Joachim Badenhorst
Drummer Anke Verslype’s project Aki has one of the most beautiful sounds of the moment in store. Their meditative approach is pure poetry on a musical seesaw between a cinematic and intimist sound world. With reed player Joachim Badenhorst on board, they are as subtle as they are determined, worming their way to the forefront of young Belgian jazz.
Lara Rosseel Orchestra - ARK
Lara Rosseel's dream project is to enrich her Octet and Quintet with a string quartet and oboe. The compositions of De Grote Vrouw (2020) and Hert (2022) in a new, even more cinematic form. As such, the grooving, warm music of this rising star will be translated into a lush Panavision format.
BOMBATAZ
With Bombataz, Vitja Pauwels and his band play a kind of musical collage art at its best. Catchy funk, jumpy synthpop, playful jazz and all sorts of quirky ideas come together in an irresistible, multilingual mélange. Top-notch Belgian stuff, brought to you with a broad grin and a big spectacle bonus.
