On 25 January 2020, Jazz International Rotterdam presents RAUW; a jazz evening full of exciting improvisations, genre crossovers, weird sounds and rock-hard grooves.
About RAUW
RAUW is the EP release of ROEST's new EP, titled 'Inloopmuziek.' Band leader and drummer Ruud Voesten didn't just want to present his own work. He also wanted to show the scene in which his music is embedded. At RAUW, the bands and guest artists are aiming to break down the walls of conformism between jazz, rock and electronics. Improvisation, the core of jazz, is preserved, but the tools have been renewed. Expect bold guitar riffs, synthesizers and solid beats in a showcase of the Rotterdam scene with musicians who are averse to being pigeonholed.
Together with Jazz International Rotterdam, Ruud came up with a shortlist of bands and made a tour of Rotterdam to find the most suitable location (Roodkapje).
