After a long pause Blazin’ Quartet is releasing a new album - support it by pre-ordering here: https://www.kisskissbankbank.com/en/projects/blazin-quartet-la-mer-la-pierre-la-terre-l-oiseau

Srdjan’s odyssey begins in Sarajevo, from which in 1992, due to an unhealthy surrounding, he moves to a much happier (at the time) Athens, Greece. After many instruments, bands, bars, weddings, parties (and some awards and festivals also), graduating in the meantime from Conservatorium van Amsterdam and Utrecht, he’s moved his base to Paris, where next to a few other projects he’s leading BQ into a new era. An era of an album with a long (french) name: La mer, la terre, la pierre, l’oiseau

Release March 19th for fan presale and May 18th for digital and shops! 

Lineup:
Andreas Polyzogopoulos - trumpet
Christophe Panzani - tenor saxophone / bass clarinet / effects
Mihail Ivanov - double bass
Srdjan Ivanovic - drums, some synths and electronics

Also on the album: 
Federico Casagrande - guitar 
Marc Buronfosse - fender VI bass, double bass
Jovana Krstevska - voice
Timothée Robert - bass

From Downbeat: “The clever postmodern antics of the young Blazin’ Quartet were noteworthy; featuring Serbian limber drummer Srdjan Ivanovic, they twist and tweak conventions, as might be expected from a band whose new album is called Jalkan Bazz”
