Kenji Herbert
Austrian-Japanese guitarist and composer Kenji Herbert seeks to unify disparate cultural aesthetics into a cohesive musical language. Equally likely to draw inspiration from Jazz, Rock, Western (and non-Western) classical traditions, his music is characterised by a committed melodicism and sense of space. To date, he has released two albums as a leader/co-leader: “The Way the Light Falls” (Inner Circle Music, 2016) and “Superluminal” (self-release, 2012). As a collaborator/sideman, he has worked closely with Zack Nestel-Patt, Arooj Aftab, Georgia Weber, Songyi Jeon, Yuhan Su and Peter Herbert a.m.o
