With more than a 300 concerts in 25 countries around the world, and great reception from both critics and the audience, EYOT stands out as one of the most interesting bands coming out from Europe in the last decade. Free of genres, EYOT brings a beautiful eclectic sound that swims from rock to jazz, punk and ambient, impressionism to romanticism, all formed into strong compositions. Their live performances are filled with energy and emotions that bring the listener deep into their personal world and create a unique experience.
The new album from EYOT is titled 557799, after the composition number 7, which is about the rhythm pattern throughout it.
5/8 5/8, 7/8 7/8, 9/8 9/8 it goes.
Those 3 odd rhythms are the basics of the Balkans’ traditional music, but for us, there’s more to that than just the number- it’s the epitome of life and history which has always been turbulent in this part of the world. That’s our Heartbeat. Odd is an odd way full of life and emotion.
The band is led by Dejan Ilijic on Piano and Moog, Marko Stojiljkovic on Bass, Sladjan Milenovic on Guitar, and Milos Vojvodic on Drums - with Pete Judge on Trumpet and Jake McMurchie on Sax on the first track, Dodola.
