TROYKA - 27/3/10

Darlings of contemporary jazz Troyka are playing Orange Street on Saturday 27th March. For those who have not heard their sound, it is best described as The Tony Williams Lifetime being remixed by Burial - a perfect combination of jazz and electronica. “Ones to watch for 2009″ Jazzwise “Troyka are fast becoming a force to be reckoned with; like King Crimson for the iPod generation”. Time Out “On the strength of their powerful live shows, Troyka are widely tipped to create the kind of interest that Acoustic Ladyland and Polar Bear made when they first arrived on the London scene”. Observer Music Monthly ****
