The young musicians comprising ReChat met while studying jazz at the Jazz-Institute in Berlin. They joined forces a year and a half ago, and have since played venues across Germany and Slovenia. Each band member contributes his compositions to the collective repertoire, so the overall sound is very unique, with an emphasis on finding a balanced musical language and the perfect combination of all members’ musical influences. The band's sound gravitates toward modern jazz, and the musicians – through different ideas within the context of their personal artistic development – search for a creative expression and idiom of their own. The band is currently making their first album featuring the members’ most recent compositions. They will play this new material (already presented at venues in Ljubljana and Maribor) also at the Jazz Festival Ljubljana.
