KARTASAN

In 2007, Jan Vandecasteele took a sabbatical year to work on his first album, 'another profile'. He moved to Ghent to gather the right musicians around him and managed to convince three incredibly good musicians. The band is complete and their release album will also be a fact in the course of 2008. Their influences include Brubeck, Sammy Davis, Tom Waits, Frank Zappa, JJ Cale, Kate Bush, Paolo Conté and Focus. Come and taste this in the Mineral Jazz Club!

Musicians:

Jan Vandecasteele - vocals, piano

Frederik Segers - guitar, background vocals

TAO

The balance between Yin and Yang, among the madness and wisdom, between paradise and hell, between anchoring and letting go, between earth and sky, between destruction and construction. TAO brings modern jazz that is taking off, on the way to the jazz of tomorrow, with compositions by each of the musicians.

Musicians:
Alexandre Cavaliere - violin
Bert Cools - guitar
Stijn Cools - drums
Janos Bruneel - bass
