about

Finding yourself lost in an exotic jungle of mystical sounds, you are drawn towards a gathering of the Forest Dwellers...

Inspired by Japanese Zen and it's roots in the tantric yoga traditions born from deep within the forests of India, this album explores the esoteric path of spiritual liberation and its freedom in Nature, by confronting the paradoxical nature of duality (lightness/darkness and chaos/order).

Jonathan Kay & Andrew Kay are exploring undiscovered musical realms which unite the spirit of the East with the creativity of the West in a never before realized synthesis of musical expression through the saxophone. Originally from Toronto, Canada and having lived and studied together around the globe, they both bring their deep understanding and rich expression of music together to be united into a truly powerful universal sound.

Trained as jazz musicians for 12 years in Toronto, Canada, at the renowned Humber College under the mentorship of world-class saxophonist and Coltrane scholar Pat LaBarbera, the Kay brothers gained acclaimed proficiency in creative jazz and improvised music and are today passionately continuing Coltrane’s cross-cultural journey, uniting his musical vision with the knowledge of India’s Ragas in search for a truly universal and transcendental musical expression.

Leading innovative cross-cultural projects such as Kayos Theory and co-leading Monsoon, the brothers have collaborated with some of the best creative jazz musicians in the world including; David Liebman, Tony Malaby, Jim Black, Michael Attias, Pat LaBarbera, David Mott, Mike Murley, Ingrid Jensen and George Koller.
