Jakub Klimiuk, a London-based guitarist and composer, brings his quintet on a European tour with brand-new material, following his critically acclaimed album ‘(un)balanced’, described by The Guardian as “a rare mix of New York edginess and Scandinavian avant-jazz impressionism.”
Expect a thrilling combination of scripted forms and improvised sections, intertwining melodic compositions with adventurous sonic explorations—“music which could engage and transcend genre boundaries” according to UK Jazz News.
The band regularly performs at major UK jazz venues such as PizzaExpress Jazz Club Soho and Vortex Jazz Club, and has toured across Europe, playing in cultural hubs like Berlin and Brussels.
