The extraordinary band name leaves plenty of room for associations – and this very open spirit also characterizes the music: instead of retreating into a narrow greenhouse, the band seeks organic forms of growth, in harmony with the infinite possibilities of their surroundings. This creates music that is distinguished by curiosity, openness, and vibrant adaptability.
Audibly present is a clear connection to jazz and the hipness of African American musicians like Thelonious Monk or Duke Ellington, progressive in the tension between creative friction and recombination of global musical influences. The pieces are characterized by melodic clarity, rhythmic energy, and a fine sense of humor. Even in the most complex passages, the music remains accessible and full of life – a truly flourishing biotope in the jazz landscape. Their current album "Blumen Berlin Bettina" was released in September 2025 on Unit Records: an adventurous sonic journey through urban and global landscapes, full of playfulness and imagination.
