12 Points announce festival artists for 2015

12 Points, the festival which provides a platform for young jazz artists from Europe returns to Project Arts Centre in Dublin from Wednesday 15th to Saturday 18th April and they’ve released the lineup of acts playing.

Down to play are Strasbourg’s Auditive Connection (pictured), Berlin-based pianist Elias Stemeseder, Norway’s Moskus, Brussels band Stuff, Hungary’s A.M.P., Finnish trio Virta, trumpeter Laura Jurd Quartet, Copenhagen’s SVIN, Amsterdam’s BRUUT!, Sweden’s Black Dough, Dublin quintet Umbra and Swiss über-jazz group Hildegard Lernt Fliegen.

And if, like me, you know none of those groups very well, the festival have created a Soundcloud playlist for that purpose:
