The Groove

Jazz music for those who like raw swing, groove and blues, who do not fear the simple raw, strong, free and basal. This music is strong, not in volume measured, but in energy. Kjell Jansson / Bass, Anders Kjellberg / drums and Björn Cedergren / scissors are all known from various contexts and have participated on a variety of records and toured diligently. In The Groove they meet and take a bundle of standards and makes it their own.

 Lisen Rylander Löve Oceans

In OCEANS, experimental pop, electronica, impro- visation, jazz and noise meet in an organic and self-evident way. It is music in which the broken meets the beautiful, acoustic meets electronics. Waves of sound; numerous, varying, abundant. The listener is led by a constant dark undertone where harmony meets disharmony. A certain tension and an uncompromising expression arise in these meetings, where Lisen is inspired to allow happenstance to lead and the sounds to decide. A step that may not have been thought out leads to the next. An exploration albeit with a clear direction. Lisen’s musical background is the foundation for something completely new. She makes brave music with nerve, not completely accessible, but welcoming, democratic and rewarding. The result is strictly personal and is like a study of her inner life.
