Danil Zverkhanovsky

Ukrainian guitarist and composer Danil Zverkhanovsky had spent the last ten years abroad and the best part of those were in Berlin. After releasing his debut original album «In Pieces Suite» in 2017 produced yet another few years back by his then teacher and mentor Kurt Rosenwinkel, he’s finally back with a followup «Work In Progress». The album is being released digitally on Danil’s new DIY label Dnipro & Kruchi and is broken up in three EP’s and accompanying materials (Vol.1 out since 11.11.2022; Vol.2 set for 06.01.2023 and Vol.3 a month after). His playing and writing here is still mainly Jazz but it’s gradually taking on more playful stylistic twists. The setting is basically a trio with Igor Osypov on bass guitar and Jesus Vega on drums; together with Zverkhanovsky it’s a flexible group well suited for live performances.

In 2022 just like most other Ukrainian artists abroad Danil had been busy participating in and co-organising various benefit concerts in venues like Donau115, ZigZag and A-Trane as well as a long string of other locations.
