Carlos
Bica and Carsten Daerr are two
international musicians who
have long been acknowledged
as the driving force of the
Berlin jazz scene. They came
together almost ten years ago
when they joined the group Tuomi,
led by the singer Kristiina
Tuomi. The two musicians have
worked together ever since,
on their own projects and with
several different ensembles.
The chemistry between them is
evident when they are on stage.
Hanno Stick, the third member
of the trio, has won several
awards at national music and
jazz competitions in Germany
(Jugend musiziert and Jugend
jazzt). He has performed with
bands playing different styles
of music and has toured Spain,
France, Sweden, Finland, Israel
and the USA. In summer 2010,
the Goethe-Institut invited
him to tour the Middle East
with the band MSV Brecht,
which has released its second
album “Hippie Tunes”
(Unit Records) in February
2012.
