Gert-Jan Dreessen Quartet / Equilibrium (albumrelease)

Gert-Jan Dreessen Quartet - Who's Who.

• Dreessen moved to New York's renowned New School of Jazz and Contemporary Music in 2019. From his return in 2020, he immediately asserted himself as a musician/composer with interests in traditional and contemporary jazz, classical, electronic and experimental music.
• Bram De Looze is perhaps the leading pianist of his generation. Active as a solo artist, but also with ensembles such as MiXMONK (with Robin Verheyen and Joey Baron). 
• Jean-Paul Estiévenart moves as deftly as virtuoso through Belgian jazz and became the most sought-after trumpet player of the past decade. 
• Bassist Cyrille Obermüller can be known as the rhythmic anchor of bands such as HAST, Bruno Vansina Quintet and Nabou Claerhout's Trombone Ensemble.

Together, these musicians have the baggage and personality to take Dreessen's compositions full of intoxicating melodies and rhythmic twists and turns to the highest level. The future of jazz, you are experiencing it today.
