Paul Wertico

Hailing from Israel, Marbin's young duo of guitarist Dani Rabin and saxophonist Danny Markovitch exhibit the energy and passion of youth, combined with a technical prowess seemingly well in advance of their tender age (incredibly, they are both in their twenties). It is truly a unique experience to see and hear Rabin creating layers of sounds by first playing, then looping guitar lines and textures over which he and Markovitch can soar with ebullient solos. These soundscapes combine elements of jazz, progressive rock, ambient meditative music and world music with an obvious Middle-Eastern influence.
