The band Bite the Gnatze is playing for sixteen years now and working with the same musicians, all rooted in the jazz and improvised music scene of Amsterdam. In the music composed by guitar player Paul Pallesen you can hear echos of Monk and Mingus and modern classical composers as Milhaud and Ives. But with the banjo, lapsteelguitar and the whistle you hear folkmusic subtile slipping into the music. ‘A collective whose comic flair and precise technique confirms the exuberant passion and confidence of Holland’s free music scene’.
