BIOGRAPHY

Tobias Vedovelli, Štěpán Flagar and Martin Eberle need little introduction to connoisseurs of the Austrian jazz scene. The bands and projects in which they are and have been involved all bear prominent names such as 5K HD, Purple is the Colour or the Leonhard Skorupa Ensemble, to name but a few. We also know that the three of them know how to move excellently in a wide variety of musical fields, have a broad range and somehow put their own stamp on everything with their playing style.

Listening to HAEZZ’s music, one quickly gains the impression that the three musicians are focussing on a more accessible form of jazz, where the emphasis is less on instrumental virtuosity and more on creating atmosphere. Of course, the moments of free playing, the rhythmically more complex passages and the brisk, casual grooves are not missing, but they do not dominate the action, but are embedded in imaginatively arranged pieces that resonate musically in the sound, open up atmospheric spaces and develop an inviting warmth.

Martin Eberle – trumpet
