"On their frst album as a trio, these jazz-rooted musicians create a luxurious atmosphere drawing from funk, krautrock, and noirish
electronica" Andy Cush / Pitchfork
"this is project is sick - Love the tunes, you defnitely capture a hypnotic fusion of like smoking hash in a dangerous alley in Tangier, but also a very trippy laid back and louche LA cool" Jeff Weiss (Washington post, LaLand, Spin)
With drummer Kenny Wollesen (Tom Waits, John Zorn, Norah Jones) and Dave Harrington (of electronic duo Darkside) guitar/bass/electronics, New York-based Swedish/Turkish saxophonist, composer, club-label owner Ilhan Ersahin captures the vibe of impromptu, cross- pollinating, and heavily grooving late- night jam sessions at Nublu, his "East Village Club where everything goes" (New York Times).
The telepathy and intuition that fows between these three musicians is one that has developed over many years of playing together in different combinations, and on a permanent regular basis at NYC's Nublu, searching and creating together in the moment. What they have come up with has evolved ste dily over that time and its current form can be heard to brilliant effect on their debut album "Invite Your Eye"
The exploratory instrumental space- jazz these gentlemen purvey has many antecedents and infuences but perhaps it's best not to cite names and instead let the music speak for itself. This sound and approach comes as naturally to them as breathing, hence the album title which is also the title of the frst single.
