Originally born in Barcelona, Spain, pianist composer Eva Novoa is currently based in New York City since 2012 after spending many years in The Netherlands. In New York Eva has been leading her bands and making her name present in the jazz scene. Her two albums with her NY quartet Ditmas Quartet (with Michaël Attias, alto sax; Max Johnson, bass; Jeff Davis, drums) "Butterflies And Zebras" and "Live At iBeam" released on Fresh Sound New Talent got two four star reviews on DownBeat Magazine in 2016 and 2018. And her last live album with this band "Live At iBeam" was selected by this same magazine within the best jazz albums of 2018. She has recently recorded a double album with her New York trio -Eva Novoa plays piano and Chinese Gongs, Drew Gress on bass and modular synthesizer and Devin Gray on drums-, soon to be released. She is currently finishing another recording/ album with a different trio with Masa Kamaguchi on bass and Gerald Cleaver on drums, also soon to be released. Her newest album "Satellite Quartet" was recorded in Miami and was released in March 2020 also on FSNT (Eva Novoa piano & compositions, Rainer Davies guitar, Kenneth Jimenez bass, Arturo Garcia drums). Her music and writing always leaves room for free improvisation. "A bold and restless pianist, moving easily between acute precision and painterly fervor" **** - DownBeat Magazine
