this is the band of jan schroeder we are
welcoming this week, their new record
"onelinedrawing" has been recentlyreleased...

jan schroeder is a jazz guitarist born in Den Haag (NL)
from a german mother and a french father, grown up
in south germany... a european jazz talent ;)
modern and often modal, their sound is warm and
generous carried by spherical guitar sound.

The quartet won prices at the Holland Casino Jazz Award
and the Motives in Jazz award in 2008. Furthermore they
were invited to play the Jazz-a-Palooza Festival in
Utrecht and the Play-Festival in Hasselt (Belgium).
All members of the quartet belong to the new generation
of dutch jazz musicians that are slowly making a name
for themselves, either in their own projects or as sidemen.
