Life is a Mosaic

Musicroom: Brussels Jazz Marathon

Prepare for a million of posts to catch up with my life :)

Lithuania has 4 jazz festivals per year which is A LOT for country of this size. Since I'm in Belgium now, I have to look for my annual dose of live jazz in my life. And actually this is something that is not that difficult to find - lots of bars or clubs that play jazz are all over Brussels. And on 19-21 of May Brussels was hosting an annual Jazz Marathon, which, of course, wouldn't be complete without my presence :)

It was awesome :) Seems like all interns in Brussels accidentally gathered in the center and did a bar-hopping from one place to another, hearing everything from classical to funk or latino jazz, ending up four of us - Leon, Volodja, Boban, me and Osku, by this guy we were kindly invited to end the party at his place.

Jazz heals my soul;)! Belgium does have a good jazz, that's a fact. My discovery of the year is Larry, a singer with an incredible voice and super happy songs. And in her band there is a cute saxophonist ;) Even rain and cold didn't stop people from coming to to the square to listen for them, it made my festival.

Pictures will be flickring in my flickr in a couple of days... pls be patient;)
