news from Norway! For me personally Eyolf Dale Trio is one of the best Piano Trios I have ever seen live. Let that sentence set a little, because honestly, I'm one of those people who's often been asked "so you obvioulsy like piano trios huh". It's true. I do.
And with Eyolf Dale, Per Zanussi and Audun Kleive you get the full package. To put it in one catch line, it's highly advanced music accessible for everybody. Well let's say for many. Doesn't catch you enough? Perhaps the following press quotes about their recent concerts on Maijazz Festival and Nattjazz Festival will do:
JAZZ IN NORWAY (from Nattjazz 2023):
"This is contemporary jazz music with a huge impact. These guys have characteristics that compliment each other, and the packed crowd is loving the sound they hear."
SALT PEANUTS (from Nattjazz 2023):
"Together, these guys are dynamite! This is trio jazz with an omph and an energy which surpasse most."
NETTAVISEN (from Maijazz 2023):
"The strong, highly personal, dynamic and melodic music paired with their searching interplay belongs on the highest international level."
I promise you that: you're gonna lick your fingers for more after a concert of these guys. Below you'll find some quotes about their latest album THE WAYFARERS (Edition Records). I'm looking for festival and club requests in 2024 to set up a nice tour in January, April and/or May. Any open slots?
