Hook, Line & Sinker day 1

Tobias Delius – saxophone, clarinet, Antonio Borghini – bass, Axel Dörner – trumpet, Tristan Honsinger – cello

Hook, Line and Sinker represents 4 of the hardest working musicians in the Berlin scene. For this band, we wanted to replicate something of the vibe of underground venues in Berlin where improvised music is taking place. So we have the quartet playing late night concerts three nights in a row at the Spinhuis. It’s a totally unique environment under the Multatuli bridge and we think perfectly suited for Hook, Line & Sinker.
