About OutNow Recordings

Out Now was created based on serious consideration of the essence of jazz, and what jazz is about today.

The label presents daring and abstract explorations by unique acts, such as: an electronic trio, solo acoustic guitar and unusual electro-acoustic quartets, playing composed works as well as totally improvised music.

Our mission ; Search within yourself for the sound you never stop hearing.
