BRUCE

Minimal Groove Jazz

Booking enquiry
Artist profile

Gilligan radically breaks expectations in his approach to the pedal steel – with his unique understanding of sound that transcends genre boundaries, he opens up new musical space. In combination with SHA’s percussively smashing bass clarinet sound, a surprising and captivating soundscape emerges that defies simple classification. BRUCE thrives on the special distribution of roles between their instruments: bass and melody functions shift fluidly, interweaving, dissolving again, and thus creating an organic, dynamic musical structure. The duo uses this freedom to shift, condense and constantly reinvent layers of sound – a muscial conversation full of attentiveness, depth, and unexpected twists.

Nik Bärtsch's Ronin

Ritual Groove

Booking enquiry
Artist profile

Nik Bärtsch’s RONIN turns repetition into momentum. Founded in 2001, the quartet brings Bärtsch together with Kaspar Rast (drums), Jeremias Keller (bass) and Sha (reeds). Their Ritual Groove Music draws on funk, contemporary classical music and Japanese ritual sounds—stripping each idea to its core, then layering hypnotic patterns into something unmistakably their own. Minimal means. Maximum pull.

EGOPUSHER

Chamber Electronica

Booking enquiry
Artist profile

Egopusher are drummer/producer Alessandro Giannelli and violinist Tobias Preisig. Their music is a visually loaded amalgam (think synaesthesia) of classic and advanced electronica and contemporary-neo-classical. It’s the type of music that begs for wide-screen movies to be shot to.

Andrina Bollinger

Avant-Pop

Booking enquiry
Artist profile

Swiss artist Andrina Bollinger crafts genre-defying music where avant-pop, jazz, poetry, and performance art merge into a multisensory maze. Inspired by her Engadin roots and artists like Björk, she creates emotionally textured soundscapes. After the LP “Secret Seed” and EP “Pleasure & Pain,” her second album “Island of Way Back” is set for release in spring 2026.

Sha

Solo Reeds & Ambient

Booking enquiry
Artist profile

Long-form melodies, continuous breath and resonant spaces define Sha's solo work. Built from circular breathing, sparse looping and an acute sense of acoustics, his performances unfold as evolving sound environments rather than conventional compositions. “Monbijou”, recorded in Bern's iconic bridge of the same name, captures a musical language that is intimate, architectural and deeply attentive to space.

Reeds & Live Sound Design

Booking enquiry
Artist profile

Sha’s reeds meet Tobias Stritt’s live sound design in a shared exploration of texture, pulse and space. Hypnotic lines move through a drone built from contributions by Delia Meshlir, James Gilligan and Jeremias Keller, while Stritt shapes the sound into subtle beats and shifting layers. “Live in Houghton”, released in January 2026, documents their improvisation at Houghton Festival. A collaboration built on attentive listening, where acoustic breath and electronic detail unfold together.

Shake Me

Ambient & Groove

Booking enquiry
Artist profile

Shake Me brings together Delia Meshlir, Sha and Jeremias Keller. Voice, keyboards and guitar meet bass clarinet, saxophone and electric bass in a warm, meditative sound that moves between dark ambient and groove. These three multi-instrumentalists let different timbres lead, weaving song and texture into an intimate, enveloping whole. Their album “Cloud Dancer” captures a music of close interplay and gently shifting colours — unhurried, tactile and full of movement.
