Founded in 2018, The Watercolors is a jazz band that interprets the compositions of oboist Janne Saarinen, and has recently grown to 7 members. In addition to oboe, the unique line-up includes violin, viola, cello, vibraphone, double bass and drums. With their music, the band paints melodic “jazz watercolours”, which combine jazz’s spontaneous improvisation, rich harmonies and swinging rhythms, and, on the one hand, timbres familiar from art music.
Eclipse Music will release The Watercolors’ second album on March 8. The band’s musicians are known, e.g. Sointi Jazz Orchestra, Joonas Tuuri Quartet, Alder Ego, Uxila Exile and Trio Nox and Cafe de Ajebas bands.
