Peter Dobai – saxophone / Miroslav Hloucal – trumpet / Leopoldo Osio – piano / Juraj Griglák – bassguitar, doublebass / Klemens Marktl – drums / Charlie Moon – vocal, guitar / Nikolaj Nikitin – basclarinet

Head in the Clouds presents Peter’s interest in combining folk and world themes with jazz. As he explains, “Under The Hill" suggests a melancholic atmosphere and folk themes. The song is loosely inspired by two folk songs that I learned to play on the tin whistle. They live deeply within me and evoke strong childhood memories. Musically, there is a strong influence of John Coltrane in solo form." Nikolaj Nikitin guests on bass clarinet.
