The band ‘Jin Jim’ was founded in 2013 by the quartet of Nico Stallmann on drums, Daniel Manrique-Smith on flute, Ben Tai Trawinski on bass, and guitarist Johan Mai. The band made a significant impact in the jazz music scene in Germany, with their rise described as ‘meteoric.’ Their exceptional success can be attributed to their innovative fusion of Latin, jazz, and rock music styles and their ability to blend all these musical genres within their unique creative framework.
