The Necks from Australia are a unique formation with a loyal fan base worldwide. Each performance is its own individual journey, a hypnotic trip, a wonderful musical ritual. Chris Abrahams (piano), Tony Buck (drums) and Lloyd Swanton (bass) conjure up a chemistry that defies orthodox description. With their long pieces that unfold slowly and intriguingly, often carried by a haunting, deep groove, the eighteen albums of The Necks withstand repeated listening. The deceptive simplicity of their music unfolds new charms with every listen. The music of The Necks is neither avant-garde, nor minimalist, nor ambient, nor jazz, but unique in today's world.
The concert in the listed MPS Studio offers the unique opportunity to follow this cult band in listed balloon chairs. There are only 50 tickets. To secure a place here, we recommend buying online, as tickets will certainly not be available at the box office.
New York Times
„One of the greatest bands in the world.“
Geoff Dyer's book ‚Working the Room‘
„(The Necks) are sometimes categorized as a jazz trio - which is fine, as long as you immediately qualify this by adding that they have completely reimagined the idea of the jazz trio.
Richard Williams, The Guardian
„Into the often prickly disciplines of minimalism, systems music and free improvisation, this remarkable trio brings a satisfying sense of long-form development... Ascetic in outline but imbued with a warm humanity, their pieces are peppered with small epiphanies on the way to a greater sense of emotional fulfillment.“
Los Angeles Times
„A magical act masquerading as a piano trio. This Australian group delivers long improvisations that change with such patient beauty that you go into a bit of a trance. You'll rarely spend an hour that passes so quickly - and so rewardingly.
Telegraph, UK, 5/5 Review of London Concert
„Like a huge mass of sound that floats in vibrating, bubbling silence and whose color and luminosity slowly change.“
Neue Zürcher Zeitung, Zurich, Switzerland
„The three have developed their own unmistakable language. Above all, the Necks are masters of dynamics. You only really understand the changes in retrospect.“
The Times, UK
„It's pretty safe to say that no other group in the world sounds like The Necks...exceptional empathy and discipline.“
