LIIT

It’s fair to say that after Melbourne trio LIIT brought the house down during an unsuspecting mid-arvo set at the 2025 Clarence Jazz Festival, they’ve been searching for an excuse to bring them back down.

Trumpeter Niran Dasika, guitarist Lawrence Folvig and drummer Kyrie Anderson don’t arrive with a fixed setlist. Instead, every performance is created in real time, layering evolving textures and unexpected rhythms into hypnotic soundscapes and inviting audiences into a creative space that is both performance and process.

To say that LIIT blurs boundaries is an understatement – the lines between intimate and expansive, delicate and cinematic, driving, groove based and hypnotic are drawn and redrawn in real time.

Those lucky enough to be at their last Rosny Farm gig will understand why they’re presenting them as the only Australian band in this year’s CJF Presents series, for those of you yet to experience LIIT – they suggest you move fast.
