Joanna Duda SOLO
Still impressed with the number of brilliant women musicians/composers/leaders at Go Northward: Jazz Connective in Helsinki it's only natural for us to continue in this manner.
Joanna composes music with analogue and contemporary techniques. Plays acoustic (mostly piano) and electronic instruments (computer, workstations, beatmachines), planting and growing them into multiplied layers consisting of one texture. As a follower of all-embracing art form and synthesis of arts and science, she also constructs installations. In her projects she seeks for absolute music communication and melting of personalities involved in musical narration.
»Joanna Duda belongs to Poland’s latest generation within its rich, experimental jazz tradition but her piano talents are only a part of the story with her. Leveraging technology in uncanny ways, her music is digital alongside analog, acoustic alongside electronic and improvised alongside charted. The product of this crossbreeding is music that doesn’t neatly reside in any known world but in a world of its own.«

Insufficient Funs & Mikko Innanen (IRL-FIN)
Special collaboration between the irish duo Inssuficient Funs and finnish saxophonist Mikko Innanen for a very special show for Jazz Connective Finland.
“The lifeblood of any art form is just that: fresh blood. Finnish saxophonist Mikko Innanen is one of the most compelling new voices on the European improvised music scene with over 40 recordings divided between leader and sideman.” DOWNBEAT
Sam Comerford: bass saxophone
Matthew Jacobson: drums
G̶i̶r̶l̶s̶ Boys just want to have fun and these ones certainly do, with Sam Comerford playing the monstrous and rare bass saxophone with his now trademark infectious energy alongside Matthew Jacobson’s playful drumming and ear for a catchy, quirky tune.
The duo – two of the preeminent figures in Ireland’s creative/improvised music scene – have been cavorting around Europe since early 2016. The music has been described as “Ed Blackwell and Don Cherry meets Autechre”(composer/performer Matthew Noone), “like a slow-burning Nirvana” (All About Jazz) and “moving seamlessly between gnarly grooves and loose, open textured freedom, using simple ‘compositions’ as starting points for adventures at the outer reaches of music” (Cormac Larkin, Irish Times).
Performance highlights so far include 12 Points Festival in Saint Sebastian, Jazzy Colors Festival in Paris and Another Love Story Festival in Meath, Ireland. They also released their debut eponymous EP to strong reviews from publications at home and abroad, being hailed as “delightfully unhinged from expectation” and “intricate and thoughtful and very accessible” by influential Irish bloggers Nialler9 and Remy Connolly respectively.
2019 will see the Dublin/Brussels based joy-seekers romp around Ireland, developing new material to be recorded later in the year for their first full-length album.
Expect revelry.
Special collaboration between the irish duo Inssuficient Funs and finnish saxophonist Miko Innanen for a very special show for Jazz Connective Finland.
