Following their critically acclaimed debut album Lubumba in 2022, British-Irish-Swiss collaborative ensemble YDIVIDE released The Default this year, delving into themes of racial and gender bias with vibrant counterpoints, powerful unisons, and intelligent solos. The quintet brings together the best of this generation of European musicians, with pianist Elliot Galvin, saxophonist Dee Byrne, guitarist Chris Guilfoyle, bassist Lukas Traxel and drummer Clemens Kuratle.
