“Little Flower” was created during Julian Erdem's three-year stay in New York City. To the drummer and composer, the term "little flower" is a metaphor for our fragile, unprotected, and therefore “true” self. The varied music of “Little Flower” creates an atmosphere floating between melancholy, hope, and forgiveness. While rooted in jazz, it plays with free improvisation and subtly connected sounds. At the same time, the metaphoric content is presented in a lyrical and melodic way. The fragility and genuineness of a little flower remain the common thread connecting the compositions. While composing and improvising, the drummer and his band strive to protect this genuineness, to let it grow, or to simply let it be as it is. The quartet on Julian Erdem’s debut album featuring Can Olgun (piano), Keisuke Matsuno (guitar), and Thomas Morgan (bass), achieves a music full of depth that sends out a warm energy by being patiently calm.
