Founded on stories that resonate in a deeply and emotional way with the listener, Fables is one of the most interesting musical encounters you will experience this year. The record is to be released on british record label Edition Records on September 18th.
“Like a wild forest, the music reflects life in all its colorful variety while still having a firm sense of unity. In spite of all the influences, this isn’t a postmodern patchwork of genres, but rather a timeless snapshot of natural beauty”. – Jakob Bækgaard, All About Jazz
“The band had a breathlessness and natural instinct that makes a refreshing change from the earnest approach of some bands… let’s hope they come back to play the jazz club circuit soon. “– Jazzwise UK
