Yunus's concert tips in April
Adrian and I (i.e. the booking duo, my desk neighbor and musical sparring partner) tried to put together a mixed buffet of musical treats for spring. Gazpacho, babaganoush, buttered pretzels and a few double espressos to finish. Soyiez le bienvenue & bon appetit, dear guests
Shake your booty. Twice. And then once more during the afterparty with Chrigi G. us Z. on the 1s and 2s. Is this jazz? I believe so.
07.04 Michelle David & The True-tones
Get dressed in your Sunday’s Best. Dressed sharp, all the right notes & True-tones and just a dazzle of flat jokes. Back after 5 years with the sweet, sweet, Motown flavours.
08.04 Marcus Strickland Twi-Life
Spring is here, meaning the sun is ready to shine. But do you know what happens just before the big orange ball is switched on? Twilight. Jazz for your ass.
16.04 vibe factor
What factor’s do you take into account before buying a ticket? Is it the vibe? Njaha. Omar Sosa, Joo Kraus and Diego Piñera come together blending and mixing their individual styles in a mixed bouquet of experimental grooves.
18.04 Kaan Peeters Quartett / The Big Tusk
Helvetic jazz is in good hands. This double-bill puts together a new quartet from the ZhdK (Zurich University of the Arts) and another passing through Zurich from Geneva.
21.04 Austrian Syndicate
Neighbourly greetings in the tradition of Fusion and synthesizer legend Joe Zawinul. Not one but two of the finest pairs of hands on the keys in Peter Madsen & David Helbock.
23.04 Nina Reiter MetaLogue
On this evening, Luzern based musician, Nina Reiter, will present a celebration of the Luzernese composer, Mani Planzer. Joined by a large ensemble for the album release, a who’s who of the Swiss jazz scene will cook up a hearty meal at Moods.
26.04 L’Éclair
Geneva is back in town, in the same neighbourhood after gigs at ZW and Bogen F in the recent years. Psychedelicious Friday tunes, baby.
27.04 Gina Été / Marlena Käthe
The third doppio of the month –this time we trade in the slow roast arabica beans for avant-pop. A warm cup, a touch of crema and a celebration of creativity. Because it’s nice, we booked twice.
28.04 Adi Oasis
The French-Carribean musician combines her retro-futuristic signature sound, her soaring voice and her spectacular bass playing to create a very personal and political work that particularly reflects the reality of her life as a Black female immigrant in America. C’mo now.
29.04 Banda Iroko (Avishai Cohen, Abraham Rodriguez Jr. et al.)
Hang up your jacket and put on your dancing shoes for an evening of Afro-Cubanism, here at Schiffbau. Baila, fuego, shake it. Back in Switzerland after the debut of the fantastic sextet at the Festival da Jazz in July 2023, and back at Moods after the last trio concert in 2021, this latest addition to our program is sure to be a treat.
30.04 Marc Méan Fields
Marc, Patrice, Paul. Pushing the boundaries and re-innovating the piano trio. Album releast “mist”, don’t miss it.
