Monkey Show, Metz

Entrée libre

[ CONCERT GRATUIT ]

Aerie
(JAZZ / SUISSE & ALLEMAGNE)

A E R I E is a quintet lead by German/Swiss saxophonist Ingo Hipp. He founded the band in 2013 and they have since played over 30 concerts around Europe. The band will be on tour - launching their new album ’hatch and host’ (Neuklang Records) - from September 2015.

Although the instrumentation is that of a typical jazz quintet - saxophones, guitar, bass and drums - the group strive to avoid the clichés of modern jazz, always searching for a fresh take on forms and structures as well as instrumental functionality.
It is lively in the *aerie so expect the unexpected: crazy flights, elegant sails, diligent hunting, always checking for limits. A E R I E creates exciting modern jazz, connecting written material and improvisation with rock and jazz grooves. Structures are expanded and melt down, to be put together again in a fresh way.
Live, A E R I E continues to catch audiences by constantly varying the shape of their music.
