On November 15th, VONK released their debut album Sunlight And Grey. The
initial recordings of this album were made almost 2 years ago in their
Serendipity Labs studio. Since then VONK has been working on the album on and
off in between other projects.

The idea for this album was to document the music that
the 3 had been developing up until now (some songs were initiated as early as
2003, some were much newer, and one song was never played before until recording
it for the album). The other idea for this album was to build on the pure sound
of the trio; real instruments. No sequencing was used, everything was played
live. That doesnt mean that everything had to sound pure, in fact, a lot of
effects were used during the tracking of the songs (mostly noticable in the
Rhodes and sax parts, but also , be it more subtle, in the bass).
What
is next for VONK? Well, to take this music on the road, and in the mean time
take a totally different turn in the studio.
