Teasing Reflections is the third album by Lucid Dreamers, the ensemble led by vocalist and composer Brigitte Beraha, featuring George Crowley (tenor saxophone, bass clarinet, electronics), Alcyona Mick (piano, synth) and Tim Giles (drums, percussion, electronics). All acclaimed bandleaders, the quartet's deep musical rapport - refined over years of collaboration - is immediately apparent. Each musician contributes to the album's balance of structure and spontaneity, shaping a sound that is both exploratory and cohesive.

Beraha's seven original compositions touch on themes of communication, destiny, identity and meaning - exploring both the absurdity and profundity of language, politics and the human experience. Her distinctive compositional voice shines through, combining lyrical beauty, social commentary and free-spirited improvisation.

With Teasing Reflections Beraha and Lucid Dreamers invite listeners on a dreamlike, thought-provoking journey. From the ridiculous to the sublime, the album is both playful and profound, exploring what it means to be human. "This album is deeply personal, reflecting both my own experiences and those of others in relation to this crazy and wonderful world that we live in," says Beraha. "Playing and improvising with George, Alcyona and Tim is a pure joy, and I am so happy to be able to share what was captured in the studio."
