about
The band was created in June 2004. Every member of our band is an outstanding personality, everyone has his own perception of music that we play. That is why we always try to find spots where our world outlooks cross: jazz, funk, ethno, elektronic music at our rehearsals. The band permanently takes part in international festivals: "Jazzbez" (2004, 2005, 2006, 2008), "Lviv Flugers" (2005, 2006, 2007, 2008), Metro Jazz (2005), "Jednist" (2007), "Starzy i Mlodzi, chilli jazz in Krakiv (2007), "Art-machine" in "Vilnus - the cultural capital of Europe 2009" project, "Contury Dosvidiv" ("Contours of Experience") 2007 - the Ukrainian - Lithuanian performance, "Jazz Fest" (Sumy 2008), "The 19th Ukrainian Culture Festival" (Sopot 2008). For six months (February - July 2008) some members of the band: Dana Vynnytska (vokal), Igor Gnydyn (drums), Anastasia Lytvyniuk (piano) have stayed in Warsaw.

The first step was a cooperation with famous Polish musicians Michal Jaros (double-bass), Tomas Dabrowski (trumpet). United creative search led to the music that combined in itself Ukrainian folk roots, experience of the Polish Jazz and the New World music ideas. Exchang
