Viaticum

Over the 10 years of their existence, e.s.t. have established themselves as one of the most popular jazz acts in the world, packing out concert halls and clubs everywhere and selling records by the bucketload. While maintaining a credible and contemporary edge to their improvisation, the band manage to create instantly accessible and beautiful themes in their music and this is the key to their continued popularity both with audiences and critics. The band's musical interplay verges on being telepathic. 2003's "Seven Days Of Falling" was rapturously received with Mojo calling the band "the most evolved small acoustic group in the whole of contemporary music”. Viaticum is set for a similar reception, with journalists already queuing up to get their copies. It's an album that grabs you straight from the off but at the same time demands repeated listening to make sure you catch all the detail. Advertising will be placed in MOJO and JAZZWISE and you'll be able to catch e.s.t. live in May 2005.
