AKA MOON

Part of the European scene since 1992, Aka Moon is one of the true legendary jazz bands still active. Always surprising and adventurous, their sound is unique and recognisable, full of fruitful harmonies and polyrhythmic craftsmanship. 

ANTOINE PIERRE

One of Belgium's most versatile drummers. Simultaneously active as composer and band leader, (URBEX & Next.Ape), solo artist (VAAGUE) and side man in dozens of projects, Antoine Pierre delivers every time in a unique way. 

DE BEREN GIEREN

In the space between expectation and surprise you will find De Beren Gieren, providing robust evidence that gold can still be mined from the union of piano, bass and drums. The band has released six records - and counting - in their almost twelve-year career.

ECHOES OF ZOO

Echoes Of Zoo is a band with a unique sound, under the high tension of Middle Eastern rock music with the striking complexity of West African percussion and a few Dub flavors, all in the service of psychedelic jazz played with a punk attitude!

ESINAM

Multi-instrumentalist Esinam Dogbatse succesfully blends her soulful voice with traditional African percussion, adding here and there some electronic influences combined with sensible melodies and flute improvisations. She plays both solo as 'one woman band' as with her full band.

GUILLAUME VIERSET
 

Guillaume Vierset has become an indispensable figure in Belgium’s music scene. He stands out as a leader and sideman in several projects that have marked the international scene (Harvest Group, LG Jazz Collective, Typh Barrow, Sacha Toorop, Thomas Champagne, Emily Allison, Bravo Big Band etc…).

JEAN-PAUL

ESTIÉVENART

During his a 15-years career, Jean-Paul Estiévenart became the most versatile and demanded trumpet player in Belgium, with more than 40 albums and collaborations with many international artists such as Enrico Pieranuzzi, Nathalie Loriers and Avishai Cohen to his credit.

KRIS DEFOORT

Pianist, band leader, composer for opera and theatre and more, Kris Defoort is a major figure in the European scene.

LABTRIO

LABtrio (Lander – Anneleen – Bram) are three musicians with strong personalities, endowed with a fresh and adventurous approach to music. The trio’s acoustic universe conceals an urban jazz that flirts with electronic, underground and hip-hop cultures.

Nabou Claerhout

Trombone player and composer Nabou Claerhout brings a unique new sound to the European jazz scene, thanks to her refreshing trombone sound, innovative effects and original approach of compositions. With her quartet N∆BOU, solo or in other formations: always grasping.

NEXT.APE

Next.Ape is Antoine Pierre's unclassifiable project. They offer a cross-over music that cleverly mixes trip-hop, electronics, jazz and rock. thin 3 years, the band has shaped its sound, with a he groove that is hectic and incisive.
