Description/Reviews
Chickn is a modular music band, bringing together an assemblage of musicians whose primary work has been influenced by Eastern Mediterranean music, psyched-out space-rock and early progressive rock.
The  main  pillars  of  Chickn's  music  is  improvisation,  as well  as  their  tendency  to  embrace  the unexpected. They  have  developed  a  large  body  of  artists that  they  work  with  and  as  a  result their liquid line-up gets temporarily solidified by their current expressive needs.
