"Hier entsteht Kopfkino!" (Jazzpodium)
"... insgesamt ist es einfach nur schöne, entspannte Musik auf hohem Niveau" (Film, Sound & Media)
"Owls setzen sich in ihren Nummern in erfrischend unkonventioneller Weise über die stilistischen Grenzen hinweg und schaffen sich ihre eigene musikalische Sprache, eine der fesselnden zeitlosen klanglichen Vielfalt." (musicaustria)
"Das führt das Trio Owls zu teils heftigen, teils zerbrechlich wirkenden Ergebnissen, denen allesamt eine geheimnisvolle Aura anhaftet." (Concerto)

Rooted in Jazz, yet free of fear to deviate from it.
Owls is a vienna-based piano trio that cleverly, yet subtly integrates unconventional electronic devices such as tape machines and modular gear. The music is rooted in- and aware of the tradition of both american and european jazz but transcends stylistic borders in a refreshing and unconventional way. Their genuinely audiophile approach leads to partly intense, partly fragile results and will grant a moving, thrilling and entertaining listening experience. Owls' music can be heard and described from different angles - the audiophile approach will always be the red thread.
