Swiss vocal acrobat Andreas Schaerer and Finnish guitarist Kalle Kalima have some things in common. As artists, each is essentially in a category completely of his own. Both are musicians who can always conjure something special from their chosen instruments. Both are known on the international jazz scene for the completely distinctive and original ways their music constantly crosses genres. Both have played together for several years in the quartet, A Novel Of Anomaly. And now they have recorded a first album together in which the focus is on the two of them. However, for this ‘evolution’ (as the album title has it), they have also involved - and drawn inspiration from - a musician whom they both admire, Tim Lefebvre. The American bassist has worked with many pop and jazz stars, notably Sting, Elvis Costello, David Bowie, Mark Guiliana, Wayne Krantz... Lefebvre’s involvement in the Michael Wollny Trio’s breakthrough was, incidentally, anything but tangential. In other words, his playing is at home in practically every context. Listeners familiar with Schaerer’s and Kalima’s previous work may find ‘Evolution’ somewhat surprising. “An album is such a different platform from playing live on stage,” explains Schaerer. “Over the course of our many recordings, we have become increasingly aware quite how differently one has to play.” That awareness has also resulted in a particularly careful focus on the post- production phase of Evolution. &nbsp;With Evolution, Schaerer, Kalima and Lefebvre have re- drawn the roadmap for the production of a jazz album. New avenues are constantly opening up in these complex but also catchy songs which are just made for repeated listening... and, of course, listening to the album is also a reminder that it will all sound completely different again when heard live.
