Hallo everyone!

We are proudly presenting that our project HISKE. has recorded a debut EP in November 2022! We received funding of SENA already, so we were ready to start! However, the production and post-production require quite some financial means, and we won't be able to finalize the product by ourselves. We need YOU! Herewith we kindly ask you to support us. It can be an opportunity to support original music of young professionals in the music business. We are all excited to record and mix and distribute this fresh original music!!

| ABOUT |

HISKE. is a group of young musicians who create their own original compositions. Genres such as Neo Soul, R&B, Pop and Jazz, with subtle influences from Afro-Latin rhythms are playfully combined. Experiencing HISKE. live is an energetic experience, in which danceable music is alternated with sensitive and poetic pieces. With melodies and harmonies borrowed from different musical traditions, HISKE. can be classified as Pop, Jazz, and World Music, and is a versatile band to listen to. HISKE. gave a sold-out concert in Theater De Roode Bioscoop last April 2022. In the end of September they played in the Brazilian "Teatro Munganga".

The band members consist of:

Linde Tillmanns (keys/guitar)
Dylan Morais (trumpet/flugelhorn)
Diana Dzhabbar (alto saxophone)
Kasparas Petkus (drums)
Misha Voeykov (electric bass)
Hiske Hupperets (voice)

Hiske Hupperets is a vocalist and lyricist, composer and arranger, born in Maastricht. After completing her first studies and MA in Sociology in Paris, she settled in Amsterdam and chose to study music and education at the Conservatory of Amsterdam. Here she took several lessons at the jazz department. During her studies she has always been involved in making her own music, which is strongly influenced by her musical interests but also her experiences from the places where she has been allowed to stay and work (Brazil, Jamaica, France). Hiske's lyrics are often poetic, sometimes even cryptic, taking you into an experience or moment she describes or conveys a feeling around themes such as the journey of self-knowledge, inner acceptance and of course, love in all its forms. Some songs also reflect social enquiries with a touch of cynicism.

Her band reflects this diversity, both in their musical training and interests as well as their own background and musical heritage. HISKE.'s compositions and arrangements are co-arranged and elaborated with its band members.
