“The Buzz Bros Band has balls, it is sincere, and it is meaningful – a rare and valuable combination, especially in this style of music.”
The band plays electric/acoustic jazz at an exceptional level. Marnix Busstra, who composes all of the music, co-leads the band with his brother, keyboardist Berthil Busstra. Drummer Chris Strik is the band’s eye-catcher, and he loves every minute of it; rarely do you see a drummer having so much fun.
And what about the music? Previous recordings of the band tended to sound kind of clean, but everyone who’s seen the quartet play live knows that these musicians are capable of. Bassist René Dissel and drummer Strik create a strong foundation, raising the music to a level that most fusion acts never reach. The Buzz Bros Band has balls, it is sincere, and it is meaningful – a rare and valuable combination, especially in this style of music.
