Four musicians have come together to form a special ensemble. Bassist Kaisa Mäensivu forms the tonal center of the quartet. Sasha Berliner contributes the vibraphone and brings "an extraordinary voice on her instrument" (DownBeat). Nicole McCabe plays the alto saxophone, her tone described as "lyrical yet powerful" (DownBeat). Mareike Wiening provides structure, energy, and subtle nuances on the drums.
The ensemble was formed for an international tour. The musicians first met in New York, and later in Europe. A concert announcement called them "four musicians in a class of their own" (Porgy & Bess). The Stadtgarten Cologne spoke of "a rare example of jazz girl power" (Stadtgarten Cologne).
