That‘s how we came up with the repeating lyrics: „Still blue in my mind, still blue in my mind, still blue in my mind…“ sung by the wonderful @sarahfinamusic.

about

ASRA - NOCTURNAL JOURNEY

This is the title of the debut album, which was recorded in September 2022 at the Jazzcampus Basel together with producer Michael Haves from Berlin, bringing songwriter and bandleader Catherine Tang's musical interpretation of the night to life. Sensitive, melancholic and hopeful at the same time.

The newly founded group, joined by Ruben Kilchling (as), Joseph Bijon (g), Paul Pattusch (b) and Lucas Zibulski (dr) invites you to linger on a musical journey uniting sound landscapes between American and European jazz, pop moments, encouraging wandering thoughts using warm acoustic sounds and flashes of electroacoustics. A fresh footprint of a young quintet on their way to independence in musical language and form in the modern jazz reality.
