Influenced by artists such as Pat Metheny, the quartet

sense of storytelling into a sound that is both soulful and
contemporary. Described by Nikos Fotakis

jazz, creating soothing and heartwarming soundscapes,”

performances.
The quartet has released two albums (A New Night, A
New Day – 2020; Wildlife – 2025) and has performed

Belgium, Slovenia, and Denmark.
