If you want to know what the future of jazz sounds like, look no further than the music of EABS. The band from Wrocław represents the new generation of musicians that is redefining the genre as the worldwide jazz renaissance sweeps across cities like London, Los Angeles and Chicago. For the past decade, the Polish collective have been blending classical elements with hip-hop, electronic beats and Slavic folk-inspired narratives to compile an impressive discography through their own method of “deconstruction and recomposition”. Along the way, they have performed at many major festivals, got picked up by legendary DJs like Gilles Peterson and collaborated with prestigious artists like Tenderlonious and Jaubi, establishing themselves as one of the most relevant groups of the international contemporary jazz scene. Drawing inspiration from a rich past to set the stage for a pluralistic future, EABS reinvent the very essence of sound. This is jazz like you’ve never experienced it before.
