Asaf Sirkis - drums, percussion, konnakol Sylwia Bialas - vocals, waterphone Frank Harrison - piano, keyboards, organ Kevin Glasgow - 6 string electric bass I strongly recommend to check this fantastic drummer and composer, and my companion on many tours, festivals and recording sessions around the world in recent years, from the UK to Indonesia, from Spain to the USA, from Serbia to China, and much more. "Israeli-born drummer and London resident Asaf Sirkis unleashes with thunderous abandon on this hard-hitting fusion offering that harkens back to a time before the genre became codified, diluted and reduced to a critical joke." — Bill Milkowski, Jazz Times (USA) "Since arriving in London from Israel at the end of the end of the '90s, Asaf Sirkis has earned a reputation as one of the world's premier drummers" — Ian Patterson, All About Jazz "Asaf Sirkis sounding creatively freer and more dramatically inventive than ever on drums." — John Fordham, The Guardian Sirkis is not only an inventive drummer but also a composer of rigour, wit and surprising delicacy" — Chris Ingham, Mojo Magazine Yours in Music Leonardo/MoonJune write your comments about the article :: © 2018 Jazz News :: home page |
