🎸 MEET THE ARTISTS — Troll’s Toy [PT]
🗓️ TOMORROW Friday, June 19 · 21:30
📍 VIC Aveiro Arts House // Secret Cinema
Before they take the stage tomorrow at VIC’s Secret Cinema, let’s take a closer look at Troll’s Toy , one of Aveiro’s most distinctive voices in contemporary exploratory music.
Formed by Gabriel Neves (tenor saxophone), Jorge Loura (baritone guitar) and João Martins (drums), Troll’s Toy emerged from a shared background in the band Souq, developing a unique language somewhere between jazz improvisation, experimental rock and spontaneous composition.
Across their releases, like 18:05 (2019), Eksterordinare (2021), Synesthesia (2023) and Palingenesis (2024), the trio has built a sound shaped by contrasts: structure and chaos, silence and noise, restraint and eruption. With explosive rhythmic interplay, extended saxophone explorations and the unusual textures of the baritone guitar, Troll’s Toy create music that feels unpredictable yet deeply connected.
As Revista Rua described it, “Home-grown talent is often worth its weight in gold, and Troll’s Toy proved exactly that with a fantastic concert, delivering a fusion jazz approach infused with rock and experimental touches.”
Tomorrow, they join Fabulous Austrian Trio fabulousaustriantrio for a night dedicated to adventurous music and unexpected encounters. Don’t miss it!
