AKI

AKI is also the name of the band that performs the songs. Cadotsch is assisted by British and Belgian jazz musicians: pianist Jozef Dumoulin, double bassist Phil Donkin, and drummer James Maddren. Swiss-born vocalist Lucia Cadotsch is praised for her pure timbre and clear phrasing, which she uses to give warmth and emotion to every text. She previously performed at the BIMhuis with the band Speak Low, which earned her five-star reviews in The Guardian and Downbeat. The album AKI was produced by an idol of hers, star guitarist Kurt Rosenwinkel.
