A sound for the future. It is wonderful to see how Belgian jazz continues to renew itself, with new talents constantly emerging to enrich the vibrant scene. One of the striking newcomers is Bodem, the trio around saxophonist Adia Vanheerentals. She recently made it to De Twintigers van Klara, young musicians to keep an eye on. With Bodem, she excels in lyrical melodies and fresh, collective interaction. For this, Vanheerentals surrounds herself with drummer Anke Verslype and guitarist Willem Malfliet. Verslype, meanwhile, impresses with the subtly overpowering aki (see : BRAND !), while Malfliet enjoys hanging out in the zone between pop and jazz with Woolvs, among others. They are the ideal companions to bring the saxophonist's short but imaginative compositions to the stage. Debut album ‘Little March' released by Nicolas Rombouts' brand-new label MOKUHI Sonorities, immediately picked up with a charming combination of intimacy and energy. Think not just brown pubs, but summer atmospheres and pink candy. The trio is now working on a second album to be released soon, with which they will tour.
