Annual trade fair, exhibition, and festival jazzahead! is one of the international jazz community's most important events. Hosted in Bremen, Germany, jazzahead! brings together musicians, bookers, agents, organizers, jazz experts, and music enthusiasts. Due to COVID-19, only half of the scheduled performances of the 2021 edition were actually recorded in Bremen. Among the performing artists is South-Korean drummer Sun-Mi Hong, who leads her own quintet. With a signature sound full of rooted grooves and well-tempered outbursts, Sun-Mi Hong has positioned herself firmly at the core of the Dutch jazz scene. She approaches the moment in a somewhat meditative fashion, bringing an entirely original attitude to the band stand. She is joined by tenor saxophonist Nicolo Ricci, trumpeter Alistair Payne, pianist Chaerin Im, and double bassist Alessandro Fongaro.
