Inseparable by Markus Bratusa, Joe Gridl & Sebastian Felber

On their new album Inseparable, Markus Bratusa (electric guitar), Joe Gridl (electric bass) and Sebastian Felber (drums) continue to explore the path they already took with their debut World Lines (2023).

The three musicians' original compositions are reinterpreted and freely arranged for each performance. This keeps the pieces exciting and makes each concert an individual experience. “We recorded several quasi concerts in the recording studio and selected the best moments for the album”, says Markus Bratusa, explaining the band's approach. “Our central compositional element is the feeling. We want to tell stories and invite our listeners on this journey.”

The nine pieces are influenced by surreal narrators such as Murakami or Lynch and deal with life upheavals and thought experiments. “The title track tries to unite the displaced worlds at the end. In the best case scenario, the listener has been moved.”

Stylistically, Inseparable can be categorized as ambient jazz. The musicians cite Danish guitarist Jakob Bro and drumming legend Paul Motian as influences.
