Ended Thursday and welcomed Friday after a walk with The Sacred Key by Vazesh, released on Earshift Music in 2021.

Vazesh perform long-form improvisations inspired by the Persian Radif, and renowned Iranian tar player Hamed Sadeghi's (Eishan Ensemble) music. Featuring Sadeghi alongside Earshift Music founder saxophonist-bass clarinettist Jeremy Rose (Earshift Orchestra, The Vampires) and bassist Lloyd Swanton (The Necks, The catholics) this is an exciting collaboration driven by an exploration of musical discovery. In 2020 Vazesh were invited to reopen the Sydney Opera House's music program with two sold-out shows. This has been beautifully captured and presented on their debut album The Sacred Key.

Die Los Angeles Times: "eine Zauberertruppe, die sich als Klaviertrio ausgibt“.
Und das unterschreibe ich sofort.
Drei Magier am Werk.

The Necks - feinster Dark-Jazz - spielten heute im Heimathafen Neukölln Berlin. The Necks sind für mich eine der spannendsten musikalischen Entdeckungen des letzten Jahres.
Hypnotisch. Drei Magier am Werk.
