DaveKoz feat @57kustik - You Make Me Smile #JavaJazzFestival2012

It all began from friendship which built around some street musicians in Dago street, Bandung, where they performed to the cars’ user for living. Fate then brought them from street to Rumah Musik Harry Roesli (RMHR), a foundation which gathers them and provides a better place where they can share their musical experiences and create ideas. The music-learning process was guided by Yala Roesli, approximately for 6 years. Been patiently waiting and fueled by eagerness to move forward, 57kustik has never given up in any circumstances or conditions. 57kustik stayed on the track, they kept on learning and maintained the practice schedule. Then a big opportunity came in the right time, put these talented musicians at the same stage to perform with international saxophonist Dave Koz at 2012 Java Jazz Festival. This unique collaboration garnered huge attention and praise from public, as well as national and international musicians. Since that, 57kustik has bigger motivation to increase their quality as musician and also as human being. 57kustik strengthens their musical skills, while keep themselves grounded. Trying to combine the incredible talents with musical skill they have, 57kustik chooses to play the jazz-pop genre. 57 itself consists “5“ which represents the band’s personnel, and “7“ which represents music’s notes. 57kustik are: Andri -- Vocal, guitar Yadi -- Violin, guitar Ipan -- Violin Ari -- Bass, cello Alief -- Percussion, vocal
