About the Event
Number Junky play provocative rhythms and odd-time signatures while retaining a focus on both lyrical melodies and lush harmony. The group is led by Kristian Borring with the rhythm section of Zac Grafton on double-bass, and Peter Evans on drums. Their album Earth Matters was released in 2022 on Coolit! Records to international acclaim by publications such as Jazziz, Jazz Halo, The Australian, and Jazz Journal. The album’s maturity and appeal was been praised for “its lustrous sound and its melodic and harmonic qualities combined with the exploration of skilful rhythms” - Jazz Mania, while Borring was hailed as being a “post-bop wizard” (Vintage Guitars).
Number Junky plays original compositions by Borring and modern interpretation of jazz standards. The trio collaborated with the piano virtuoso Fabian Almazan on ‘Earth Matters’ and have recently joined forces with British saxophonist Will Vinson Work for their next album.
