ADHD

Klinck Trio brings together three exceptional voices from the Belgian music scene: violinist and composer Elisabeth Klinck, saxophonist Adia Vanheerentals and pianist/producer Maya Dhondt. With their debut album My Hair is Everywhere, the trio has developed an intimate musical language in which melody and silence maintain a delicate balance.

The music is rooted in improvisation and exudes an openness in which every sound and every pause take on meaning. The album sounds like an invitation to listen closely: from whispered details and moments of pause to playful melodies and tender resonances. Inspired by artists like Meredith Monk, the music oscillates between lightness and melancholy, seeking a fragile beauty that only fully unfolds in silence.

ADHD

Based in Reykjavik, ADHD’s music is not easy to categorise. It is melodic and infused with a good dose of Icelandic melancholy and humour. Programmers categorise ADHD somewhere between melancholic, jazz-rock and ambient. Their music is often described as an atmospheric, immersive trip, whilst their live performances are regarded as a long emotional journey through the past, present and future of jazz.

The band never uses a set list at live concerts. The programme takes shape organically as the four band members interact with one another on stage. As a result, every concert is completely different. A performance by these four Vikings is always an all-encompassing ritual, an exorcising potion and a natural phenomenon. It has been 11 years since they last performed here. A concert that sold out in no time. Don’t sleep on it!
