Hatka

Hatka is a transatlantic free-jazz trio where three seasoned improvisers operate as one listening organism: Darin Gray, Janne Tuomi, and Alan Wilkinson. Their music lives in the fertile overlap of free jazz, electro-acoustic texture, and raw improvisation. Physical and spacious at the same time. Rather than “soloist + rhythm section,” Hatka works as a constantly shifting balance of equals: shaping resonance, friction, silence, and sudden momentum in real time. The result is intense, playful, and unafraid of noise, abrupt beauty, or the unknown.

Alan Wilkinson (alto saxophone, bass clarinet, voice)
Darin Gray (upright bass, preparations, electronics)
Janne Tuomi (drums, percussion)
