Formed in Feb 2007, “RADICAL CONTEXT” is a young jazzy outfit playing a good solid mix of jazz classics, bossa nova and original tunes. Often described as dreamy, soulful and bitter-sweet, Radical Context plays music that speaks about love, joy, sadness, hopes and dreams. Radical Context finds inspiration from an ecletic range of styles, ranging from John Coltrane to Antonio Carlos Jobim to The Brand New Heavies, always trying out new exciting musical ideas and tunes.
