PAKT, a true super group of master musicians merging & colliding new music in the realms of progressive rock, electric jazz, experimental, ambient, psychedelic and beyond, is an experience as much as a musical project, featuring Percy Jones (Brand X, Brian Eno, David Sylvian, Suzanne Vega), Adam Holzman (Miles Davis, Steven Wilson, Marcus Miller, Lenny White0), Kenny Grohowski (John Zorn, Brand X, Imperial Triumphant, Hipster Assassins), Tim Motzer (Bandit65, Jaki Liebezeit, David Sylvian, Jamaaladeen Tacuma)
PAKT recalls the fearless attitude and daring approach that originally defined progressive music: where the magic of the moment always triumphed over preconception. Templates be damned ... this music blazes its own path! This is truly exquisite fare, serving as a reminder to aficionados of what initially drew them to this most creative, visionary of genres.
PAKT’s debut album was released in 2021 on MoonJune Records, the band records almost all the shows, 8 of which were released in past few years:
