The Heartgroove Quartet
The Heartgroove Quartet is an international jazz/groove ensemble featuring Max Kuitems (piano), Ilia Gurianov (guitar), Tianyi Zhang (bass), and Phileas Loh (drums). Formed at the Royal Conservatoire of The Hague, the band draws strong inspiration from the L.A. scene and groove artists such as Louis Cole and Sam Wilks, alongside contemporary jazz influences including Paul Cornish, Aaron Parks, and The Bad Plus. Their sound is melodic and energetic, driven by a soulful groove that blends strong compositions with vibrant improvisation.
We aim to create a new space where musicians and music lovers can come together, connect, and build meaningful relationships through their shared love for musical exploration.
