“If I could label Benny’s music as a new sub-genre of Jazz, the title would be listed as follows:
LateSixtiesEarlySeventiesSouthsideOfChicagoSummertime-BackyardBarbequeMusic” …this is what American jazz trumpeter Derrick Gardner wrote about Benny Hrdina’s Big Organ 5.
Benny Hrdina's Big Organ 5 - Beware Of The Goose! Benny Hrdina is a wonderful young Jazz drummer from Tirol, Austria in the tradition of Art Blakey and Philly Joe Jones. Benny has put together a fresh and creative, hard-swinging, Hammond B3-based Jazz quintet, featuring the unique frontline sound of guitar, tenor sax and vibraphone. On the vibraphone is the amazing Slovenian newcomer, Vid Jamnik. Brilliant tenor saxophonist Dennis Brandner, from Wolfsberg, Austria, is now making a name for himself in New York. The soulful guitarist, Filip Sijanec, is yet another exceptional new Jazz talent from Slovenia. Rounding out the group on Hammond B3 is the swinging veteran, Rob Bargad. This exciting band band plays a mix of originals and freshly arranged Jazz classics.
