Chui are an up-and-coming young quartet from Croatia who have developed their own rather unique take on jazz.

Their potent blend of dance club rythms, jazz vocabulary, turbo-charged jazz/rock fusion and an uncompromising commitment to groove permeates their first album from start to finish and has them firmly entrenched as a mainstay on the Central European music scene. At the end of 2013 their second effort was released by Dancing Bear Records to widespread critical acclaim and even greater enthusiasm from their dedicated fanbase. Third album called “Third Sun From The Stone” was released by the end of 2015. and voted the best Croatian album of 2015. In 2017. they recorded album Chui ovu glazbu with Croatian radio-television jazz orchestra, and a they did a colaboration with Croatian vocal diva Josipa Lisac. Album Chui ovu glazbu won two Porin awards (Croatian Grammy award) for the best jazz album and the best jazz performace. Their all-star line-up brings together four of the top cats on the Croatian scene: Toni Starešinić – keyboards & electonica, Vojkan Jocić – sax & electronica , Ivan Levačić – drums, Konrad Lovrenčić - bass.
