TRISTAN

'The best of the seventies brought to 2023'' is what TOTO guitarist and singer Steve Lukather came up with when he heard the music of TRISTAN! 

JAZZ, FUNK & SOUL WITH TRISTAN
Dutch five-piece Tristan's music can be best described as feel-good vintage Acid Jazz, with the energy, vibe and sounds of today, performed by some of the best contemporary pop/jazz musicians from Europe.

Funky rhythm guitars, Hammond, Fender Rhodes and synths, and a rhythm section that has been performing together for decadesplaying solid grooves and tight, punchy arrangements that have since become their trademark. All this underpins singer Jaycilee stunningly beautiful and soulful vocals. It will take you back to that great warm sound of the 70's, with a fresh breeze of influences from the present. While Tristan’s music may sound like bands such as Tower of Power, Snarky Puppy, or classic Acid Jazz acts such as Incognito and the Brand New Heavies - who all produce high energy grooves - what makes this group stand out from their contemporaries is the high quality of the compositions and arrangements.

SEVEN is Tristan's 7th full studio album.

The number 7 symbolizes confidence with the fine combination of creativity and practicality. After all, we feel more comfortable and stronger as a band than ever.
We have tried our best to, once again, put in the extra effort and foremost joy of writing and recording new material.

With 12 new tracks in our vocabulary, we got a fresh start on the road, doing what we love dearly: Spreading positive energy through our music, while taking our audience for a ride they won't soon forget.
The compositions are fun to play live, with plenty of space to evolve as we go.

This has been a crucial part of our style, in order to make each and every concert excitingly unique. Together we've been to so many parts of the world already. Not only can't we wait to come back; We are eager to expand that incredible adventure.

For a band to progress and continue to be impactful in an industry that is ever charging, it has to continue to develop whilst retaining its identity. With their 7th album “SEVEN”, Tristan are proof of that!
Quality music played by top shelf musicians on yet another creative journey that feeds the soul!
Shine on..........
Peace… Bluey (Incognito / Citrus Sun / STR4TA & Solo Artist)
