Jazz Band Shanghai

This Shanghai-based jazz band blends live electronics with jazz improvisation: sound collages of samples, loops, and beats meld with the live band into a dynamic and vibrant ensemble.

Inspired by the Norwegian electronic jazz scene, the band was founded by Atze Ton and began in Munich, Germany. When Atze relocated to Shanghai at the end of 2010, he continued the project there and has since performed with Toby Mak on trumpet and Nicholas McBride on drums, forming the core team.

Since early 2013, the band’s lineup also includes Mark Fitzgibbon on keys and Amine El Filali on vocals. The latest addition of Lv Jing on Erhu introduces a strong Chinese influence to the performance. This lineup earned the band 3rd prize at the Cotai International Jazz & Blues Festival in Macau from October 11-13, 2013.
