Lekverk seems to contantly surprise their audience. They’ve managed to produce an album that is as witty, clever and different, as it is straightforward and comprehensible, all of this within the context of everyday music. Few other jazz groups combines instruments such as harmonium and 80’s Korg synthesizers with a sofa and a citchen sink.
