ABOUT

Sergei Zyrianov’s newest project “Deuces Wild”, which was found in Berlin in collaboration with other professional musicians, is an exciting blend of bebop and modal jazz style elements combined with romantic ballads. The quartet is focused on performing well known tunes of these music styles in order to convey to listeners the atmosphere of jazz clubs and venues of 52nd street from the 1930s to the 1950s in New York. Concentrating on playing the instrumental music, musicians chased the purpose to occupy the niche of a background as well as dance music. Elegant style is also one of the most important band’s features.

Musicians believe that only live concerts are able to convey the fascinating and at the same time risky spirit of that remarkable era.

Unlike many other jazz bands, which rarely pay attention to rehearsals and prefer jam session format, artists from Deuces Wild are concentrating on a sound quality and teamwork. Thereby, they are trying to focus more on listeners without sacrificing things like composition and dynamics.

Several band’s recordings are now available for streaming on Soundcloud, as well as on the Deuces Wild’s page on Facebook.
