In May this year we did two concerts in New York (at the Austrian Culture Forum NY and the Local 269) and one in Washington D.C. – it was a really nice trip!
Review from the Concert at the A.C.F in Washington D.C.
To describe the musical style of kompost 3, a young, vivid and multisided Austrian jazz band, the classification jazz alone would just be too narrow. Musicians Martin Eberle (trumpet), Benny Omerzell (keyboard), Manu Mayr (bass) and Lukas König (drums) call their music avant-groove.
Kompost 3 play funky pieces with elements of electronic music, they remix all possible musical styles and produce this all improvisational, very creative and unmistakably theirs avant-groove, which truly delighted us on the evening of May 3. They rocked our house and engaged our audience in their performance by transporting the music in such strong and powerful way, which hence did not keep the audience quiet. They applauded enthusiastically and gave them their merited standing ovations. Kompost 3 are exceptional musicians who catch the audience’s heart by storm. (AS)
