Abysskiss - retrofuturistic pocket orchestra from France

Abysskiss is a delightful “pocket orchestra,” a small ensemble with the sound of an orchestra. It offers listeners a kiss from the depths of the sea, but at times also wanders off to the Milky Way. This unusual four-member group creatively combines baritone guitar, saxophone, vibraphone, vocals, as well as baritone horn and flugabone, the latter being a rarer brass instrument. The imaginative and poetic quartet expresses, here and now, what jazz could be and what might happen in its orbit. France’s leading jazz magazine, Jazz Magazine, selected the album Big Dipper as the newcomer of June 2025.

_{In 2026, it will be 100 years since jazz symbolically arrived in Finland with the ship Andania. The year thus marks a historic centenary celebration for Finnish jazz: Jazz in Finland 100. The anniversary highlights Finnish jazz and its artists both in Finland and abroad, celebrating jazz as part of Finland’s cultural heritage. The Jazz in Finland 100 campaign is coordinated by the Finnish Jazz Federation.}
