--------------
SPIN is the 9th release of the working band RONIN since its foundation in 2001 and the first with the new bass player Jeremias Keller, who joined the band in 2020. The band still consists of the founding members Nik Bärtsch and drummer Kaspar Rast and reeds player Sha who is part of the group since 2004.
Since their last release AWASE (ECM 2018) the band has continuously developed the repertoire further in their weekly concerts on Monday - even during the Corona time - at the own EXIL club in Zurich. In January 2024 they played MONTAGS concert number 1000 and will celebrate 20 years of Monday concerts this November.
