ReDiviDeR was established by drummer Matthew Jacobson in 2007 as a creative outlet for his compositions as well as his somewhat perverse fascination with anagrams. The band play all original compositions from Jacobson ("a European jazz artist of growing charisma" - the Guardian) with influences as diverse as Charles Mingus, the Books, Deerhoof and Tim Berne.
Aoife Doyle’s unique, expressive voice is equally at home with jazz, folk, country, bluegrass or blues, and her singing can evoke memories of the sophisticated, velvet tones of Ella Fitzgerald, the earthy, sweet lyricism of Patsy Cline or the straight-up country clarity of Alison Krauss. Backed by subtle piano, inventive bass and sensitive percussion, the band has won much deserved critical acclaim.
