Iztok Vidmar on electric bass, founding member of veteran Slovenian Jazz band Lolita, 2011
Established in 1987, Lolita is a veteran Ljubljana jazz band with a marked looseness concerning their line-up as well as their musical orientation. Throughout more than a dozen albums and numerous live shows and projects they have flexed their jazz foundation into many other fields, especially rock, ethno and free improvisation. They themselves say it's a "HiEnergy Turbo Porno Minimal SugarFree Pop Funky Overdrive Ethno Broootaal HardGroovie NuJawzz kind" of music. And even though change is the only musical direction they follow, they still have a distinctively trademark sound to themselves: a free floating, sometimes laid back, yet more often energetic, groove.
Their musical flexibility is very much defined by their ever-evolving line-up. As musicians have come (and gone) their own musical visions and preferences have kept the band's sound fresh even after more than a quarter of a century.
