Cry Me a River

Being Sentimental in a Beatbox

NATURE BOI are a London-based jazz quartet. Their diverse set of intimate and original arrangements of both well-known and neglected standards feature the vocals of HEIDI HEIDELBERG - a classically-trained singer from the suburbs, with moments of self-delusion and thus a tendency to beatbox. Shaven-headed guitarist BORIS LATINOV hails from Switzerland (and the rest of the world) and brings a European sensibility to his melodious and instinctive improvisation, and if you listen closely you may hear him sing. His iconic earings glint in the limelight. JAMIE BENZIES - electric bassist in the up-and-coming jazz/hip-hop ensemble ‘Psylus’ - cannot be long apart from the resonant caresses of his double bass. Watch his curly locks tremble as he climbs virtuostically across the fingerboard. TIM DOYLE - drummer and vibraphonist has found many pies to dip his fingertips and various sticks into. Even if it's some non-descript steak 'n' ale, he will re-season it and give it a glorious gourmet garnish.

Together NATURE BOI's sound is at once traditional and idiosyncratic, subtle and passionate, and crucially never sacrificing quality for the joy (and, dare we say, fun) of playing jazz.
