about

The Bread Crumb trio (George Kokkinaris, Nikos Kordelis, and Giannis Arapis) is an improvisational/experimental music group here releasing its first self-titled album on SLAM Productions. Its particular combination of electric guitar with contrabass gives birth to compositions encompassing a wide range of sonic manipulations.

The instruments escape their traditional ways and produce uncanny and original sounds. The three musicians get together on the basis of musical "dialogue", aiming to explore new musical dynamics. The members of Bread Crumb are active in the improvisational and new music scenes of Athens and Berlin, each one stemming from different backgrounds (classical, jazz, rock, punk). The album is an example of the up-and-coming scene that welcomes more and more musicians, creating performances for an audience that seeks out unique sounds and new sonic experiences.

Giannis Arapis: guitar
Giorgos Kokkinaris: double bass
Nikos Kordelis: guitar

“Reflects Kordelis’ activities in free improvisation and urban folk music; Kokkinaris’ creation of improvisational dance work; and Arapis’ experience in noise rock and Free Jazz, with the like of Noël Akchoté. In fact the introductory "Harvest" manages to blend timbres from voltage drones, percussive stick taps on the taut strings and a buzzing bass line into a squeaking, frailing sequence that calls on metal as much as jazz...Bread Crumb’s sonic boldness doesn’t prevent the program from having its moments of harmonic lyricism. "Small bucket of sand", the final track moves from ringing string vibrations to a fluid, gentle coda...Bread Crumb should be heard.” - Ken Waxman, JazzWord

“This is a thoroughly different release and one that will draw those audiences looking for yet more individualistic sounds and performances, presentations that take risks when necessary in order to create new and unique works and in that process, innovation and improvisation are indispensable.” - Ken Cheetham, Jazz Views
