PESH

PESH is a European quartet formed by four young up-and-coming artists from Norway and Poland. Their music is best described as expressive chamber jazz, in the musical landscape between tradition and free improvisation.

The quartet met during the international educational program “INTL Jazz Platform” in 2021, where an immediate musical spark led to the idea of starting a band together. The goal is to create a common improvisational language across the borders, exploring each other`s cultures and different musical references with respect and curiosity.

Their debut album, Peshish, marks a new chapter in the bands career. Improvisation and interplay are the core of the music, which is based around original compositions and ideas of all the band members. The material is shaped spontaneously on stage or in the studio by stretching structures, altering forms, and challenging the traditional roles of their instruments.
