Portrait of Florian Herzog

Florian Herzog, bassist and composer, is a pioneer of the German and international jazz and avant-garde scenes. After living and working in the Netherlands, Cologne and finally New York, he now writes for projects that are avant-garde jazz, pop or electronic, but also always all of the above. His bass playing has been described by the press as "emancipated, spirited and sensitive." As a leader, Herzog's projects such as Moon Tree and his just-released quartet album "Almost Natural" are peppered with international collaborations and celebrated by the press.

“Many people think there is nothing new under the sun in jazz anymore - this quartet proves that this mostly thoughtless attitude is simply not true” - Rolf Thomas, FAZ, 2023
