Veronika ChiChi - vocals Dmitrij Golovanov - piano Artūrs Duckis - bass Domantas Razmus - drums Arkadij Gotesman - percussion (modern, latin, swing)
Veronika ChiChi needs no introduction to jazz lovers in Lithuania, as she is not only a vocalist for the well-known retro jazz group "The Ditties," but also one of the most prominent jazz vocalists in Lithuania, whose music is full of both traditional jazz improvisation and the grace of contemporary jazz. The title of her debut album, "A Singer of a Thousand Faces," aptly reflects the various expressions and styles she incorporates into her work.
This evening is special - Veronika and her quintet will perform not only the audience-favorite pieces from the "Namai" program, but also a continuation of this program, featuring new works that are emerging in increasing numbers and are likely to be recorded for a new album soon. Veronika is a mature jazz composer and a strong leader of her group; she brings courage and playfulness to her compositions and interpretations of jazz standards. Her voice is known for its ability to touch the souls of listeners, creating a deep and emotional connection.
The ensemble is graced by Veronika's bright and charismatic stage partners, also known as the No Name Jazz Fellas - Dmitrijus Golovanovas, Domantas Razmus, and Artūras Duckis - who captivate Lithuanian and international audiences with their bold and technical improvisations, along with percussion master Arkadijus Gotesmanas.
Veronika's group has performed at many Lithuanian festivals and has received international recognition, playing at the Cairo Jazz Festival in Egypt, Leopolis Jazz Fest in Lviv, Ukraine, Saulkrasti Jazz Festival in Latvia, and Opus Jazz Club in Budapest.
Her participation in the international project "Jazz Exchange" alongside musicians such as Bojan Z and artists from Serbia and Luxembourg demonstrates her dedication to music and high ambitions. The project led to performances at prestigious festivals like "Like A Jazz Machine" in Luxembourg and the Novi Sad Jazz Festival in Serbia, culminating in the recording of an album that is currently in the production process.
