Twisty Moon by Alice Z

On February 2018, me & 8 fantastic musicians have joined together on stage to present an orchestral adaptation to my songs. This special performance took place at the St James Concert Hall at my home Island of Guernsey. 
It was a night that I will never forget. Truly magical. I doubt if I ever enjoyed so much before performing my song like that.
Here is the video for All Related taken from the concert.

ALL RELATED (Live At St James)

Originally from London, Katiusha's style swims between a love of deep, dark sounds, and the zest-infused attitude of her native UK scene. Between two stints living in Berlin she co-founded the not-for-profit party Patchwork, hosting intimate parties with reputable figures like DJ Sprinkles and Lena Willikens. The party's aim - to explore different pockets of the underground whilst connecting with diverse audiences - has influenced her direction as a DJ, bringing a combination of raw energy and flavour to the dance.

As an experienced band-leader but also a versatile sideman Misha has performed at many of London’s top venues such as Ronnie Scott’s, the Vortex, 606 Club, Pizza Express and Royal Albert Hall, as well as venues in the rest of the UK and around the world. Having won the 2014 Dankworth Prize for jazz composition Misha is an experienced composer and writes for various jazz groups as well as classical soloists and ensembles, and is influenced by a variety of jazz, classical and pop music.

During his final year at the Academy Misha started his group and has been performing with it regularly since, with all concerts being very well received, and winning the Kenny Wheeler Prize in his final term has led him to record his debut album.
