“Like A Monkey Without the Cuckoo Clock” is a journey through the inner mental patient mindscape of the Jebel Chamber Orchestra, expressed in acoustic honks, bonks, scrapes, and screams, and other outbursts. Prepared piano, homemade instruments, and garbled screams collide to tell the story of our crazy joyful Jebel monkey.

Sie widmen sich intensiv der freien Spielweise und holen aus ihre Tröten mit Inbrunst allerhand absonderliche Töne heraus. Zwischendurch gehts recht krachig zu, Chaos heißt dann die Devise.
