This energetic formation from London gives a futuristic twist to the jazz formula of piano, bass and drums. ‘A killer live band’ (The Guardian). Everything and everyone in the universe is interconnected: this is what Phronesis want to communicate with the album We Are All, the current highlight of their oeuvre according to de Volkskrant. The threesome from London became a big name at (jazz) festivals thanks to their exciting ensemble playing, sometimes close-knit and sometimes disorienting, but always in balance. Double bassist Jasper Høiby, pianist Ivo Neame and drummer Anton Eger all provide the compositions. ‘Directing, disrupting and bringing everything to a good conclusion. This is what Phronesis, founded by London-based, Danish-born bassist Jasper Høiby has been doing since day one. The long blonde frontman plays his double bass intensely, as an archer, plucking the strings as if he’s shooting arrows. Together with his inventive trio he keeps on evoking new and different atmospheres’ (NRC) BIMHUIS - March 30 2019
