A few months ago, Avishai Cohen was releasing his symphonic album "Two Roses", a "once in a lifetime project", he said. After a successful release and more than a hundred reviews around the world - the Israeli composer, singer and bass player returns to jazz with a dazzling new trio: Elchin Shirinov, still on the piano and, on drums, the arrival of the young and incredibly talented Roni Kaspi, who joined the band during the 2021 summer tour. This new album "Shifting Sands", recorded in august 2021, will be release in May 2022 on naïve records and re-engages with this very special alchemy that Cohen's music provides: fresh and expansive melodic lines, diverse and sophisticated rhythms and a musical elegance that only he can achieve. This release features 10 new tracks, including 1 different title on each format.
