Robert Jukič “Bushido”

Robert Jukič “Bushido" (Slovenia)

Boštjan Simon: saxophones
Tomaž Gajšt: trumpet
Goran Krmac: tuba
Kristijan Krajnčan: drums

Robert Jukič (Novo Mesto, 1978) is one of the most interesting young musicians on the Slovenian jazz scene, with twelve albums recorded as a leader and several collaborations worldwide. His new project “Bushido” (in reference to the ethical code of samurai warriors) carries on the classic formula of a quartet without harmonic instrument: in this case Boštjan Simon, talented saxophonist from Solkan, is paired with Tomaž Gajšt, trumpeter of the Orchestra of the Slovenian RTV. Kristijan Krajnčan (who also took part in many projects as a cellist) completes the band on drums.
