Event Details
HEKKA is a piano/bass/drums unit which explores song forms, loops, beats, & improvisations. The trio - consisting of Novak Manojlovic, Tully Ryan & Jacques Emery - collectively navigate melody & structure with a unique empathetic approach, moving through acoustic and electronic landscapes with a rare litheness and unity. While curiosity and exploration inform their aesthetic, the song remains pre-eminent. Beauty is clarity and communication is always key.
Since releasing their debut EP 'wrecker' in late 2018 and touring the east coast of Australia to much acclaim, HEKKA have become of the most unique ensembles in the country with their idiomatic and broad-minded take on the piano trio format. As a result they were the recipients of the esteemed Freedman Fellowship award in 2019. This year sees them performing new material ahead of the release of their debut full-length; 'Everywhere I Go My Body Goes With Me'.
