For a sweet life, new jazz of dub gravitation and hip hop intelligence
Austrian saxophonist Yvonne Moriel is stylistically versatile, trained in jazz and classical music, and highly active in the field of contemporary/experimental music. She created her live project sweetlife in 2022, which now brings together four of the most promising austrian artists of the young jazz generation. The music of sweetlife combines jazz with dub effects and electronics, while free-jazz-inspired improvisational sections meet complex rhythmic patterns and beats influenced by modern jazz and hip-hop. In 2024, sweetlife was selected as a New Austrian Sound of Music act for 2025/26, with Yvonne Moriel shortly after winning an Austrian Jazz Award as Best Newcomer. Driven by the constantly innovative spirit of jazz and the experimental music the project will release an album debut in 2025.
