Description
Organ-led power trio featuring three of the hottest players on the Norwegian jazz scene - keyboardist David WallumrÃ¸d (Torun Eriksen, Beady Belle etc.) bassist Audun Erlien (Nils Petter MolvÃ¦r, Eivind Aarset etc.) and drummer Anders Engen (Bugge Wesseltoft, Laurent Garnier etc.), this is an all-killer-no-filler excursion through funk, jazz and no-nonsense grooves.

As regular participants in Cosmopolite Scene's Organ Club, the group has evolved, with a stylistically diverse but utterly consistent repertoire and spirit. Their sound is led by WallumrÃ¸d's keyboards, particularly the Hammond organ, but this doesn't mean that Erlien and Engen have their stars obscured - quite the contrary in fact: there are those locked-in grooves of drum 'n' bass splendour underpinning some of the groovier tracks on the album, and there are enough improvisational flourishes and solo passages to keep even the hungriest fan of the rhythm section satisfied.

Whether on an up-tempo groove, rocking out, shuffling, swinging, or floating through soulful atmospherics, the group remain on-point, neither missing nor wasting the opportunities presented by their jams.

Personnel: David WallumrÃ¸d (Hammond organ, clavinet, mini moog, prophet 5, piano, hand claps), Audun Erlien (bass, hand claps), Anders Engen (drums, percussion, hand claps)
