Jazz fusion band Olvine came together through the slow, delicious drip of music in the city of
Liverpool. Similarly to their name, Olvine (a reference to the ancient creeping undergrowth
found in and around Liverpool’s green spaces) came together almost as a force of nature, their
disparate roots reaching out and entangling in the midst of an urban environment steeped in
lush musical history.
With each player bringing their own musical tastes and ideals to the project in equal measure,
you find a refreshing fusion that is somehow hauntingly familiar: odd meters meet afrobeat,
jungle meets jazz, and future soul meets drum & bass in compositions that transport you
effortlessly on a kaleidoscopic journey.
