Yii
Laura Zöschg: Stimme
Luka Zabric: Altsaxophon
Yii consists of two individuals that meet each other in a world of strange, surreal dreams, where narratives take unexpected turns and somehow familiar faces remain unknown. Wandering through these outlandish realms, they find their bearings with nothing but each other to relate to, while their set course remains anything but set; it becomes a winding journey through spheres of acoustic phenomena of voice and saxophone, a path of uncertain outcomes bound by their mutuality and curiosity. Their debut album “The trails of levitating creatures” was released on November 27th, 2025, on the CRRNT Collective label. In April 2026, the duo will play its album release tour with concerts at venues including in “Galerija Škuc” in Ljubljana (SI), in “Kulturkotter” in Graz (AT), and in “Echoraum” in Vienna (AT).

Laura Zöschg is a musician and composer working in the field of improvised and experimental music. Her means of expression are the different colors and sounds of her voice, and for certain projects she also experiments on the piano, organ, and flute. She received singing, piano, and flute lessons from an early age before beginning her jazz vocal studies at the University of Music and Performing Arts (KUG) in Graz in 2016. Thereafter she moved to Aarhus, Denmark, for her master’s degree, which she completed in 2022. Since then, Laura has been performing concerts throughout Europe with various bands and projects, such as Yii, Blaume, mimicri, Undercurrent, and her solo project LOA. Her most recent releases include Yii’s “The trails of levitating creatures”, Blaume’s debut EP “excess air”, an improvised solo EP on the church organ entitled “sem”, and a feature on the album “I Can Feel My Dreams” by multi-instrumentalist and composer Damian Dalla Torre (IT/DE). Raised in Schabs in South Tyrol, Laura has been living and working in Copenhagen, Denmark, since 2022.
Luka Zabric, born in 1997 in Ljubljana (SI), is a saxophonist, improviser and composer, since 2020 based in Copenhagen (DK). He made initial contact with improvisation in music at the Edgar Willems Music Centre (GCEW, institute), where he first completed elementary education of the recorder flute and music theory (solfeggio) and was introduced to jazz when picking up the alto saxophone aged 12 there. His subsequent musical education led him through the jazz institute of the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz (KUG) [2016-20], and the Rhythmic Music Conservatory (RMC) in Copenhagen [2020-22], during which he became increasingly drawn to liminal sonorities and the wide spectrum of acoustic phenomena of his instrument. Encounters and collaborations with peers, faculty and other inspiring artists within and outside the institutional frameworks have paved the trajectory of his sound explorations through extended techniques, instrument preparations and multi-mic’ing setups. His discography as a bandleader includes the releases Cradled Cravings (The Gatherers, September 1st 2023, CRRNT), Nebožder (solo EP, December 1st 2023, CRRNT), Live in Osijek (The Gatherers, December 20th 2024, Soundbrick Studio), Unspoken Remains (Mass of Debris, July 12th 2025, CRRNT), and Trails of Levitating Creatures in collaboration with the vocalist Laura Zöschg (Yii, November 27th 2025, CRRNT).

Tomaš Grom solo: Kontrabass, Elektronik, Dada, Video
Tomaž Grom (Ljubljana, 1972) is a double bassist, composer, and sound researcher. He understands music primarily as a medium of communication, not as an aesthetic pleasure. For him, music is a process of searching: a series of unresolved questions, a flow of ideas, and an engagement with uncertain situations. Composition, in his practice, happens through improvisation. Improvisation opens a space for mistakes, for getting lost and finding one’s way again—for deviation that leads to unexpected and intriguing solutions. Difficulties are not obstacles but triggers for reflection and for opening new paths. He is the founder and artistic director of the institute Sploh (Sound / Performing / Listening / Observing / Hearing), which operates in the fields of music and performing arts production, education, and publishing. He has performed at numerous festivals across Europe and North America and has composed original music for theatre, dance, puppet productions, and films. Based on his concept, the feature-length documentary Balkan Whispers (dir. Boris Petkovič) was created. He is also the author of video portraits of female artists for the online platform Centralala.si, as well as the films I Can’t Wait for You to Come (2022) and Don’t Think It Will Ever Pass (2023).
