with a deep understanding of a hard, driving swing..."

Scandinavian stages and CD´s. A creative and personal sounding musician,

KJ
Trio was formed in -96 with an ambition to have a band with the ability
to go in and out of different sounds and moods, especially (but not exclusively)
those not so frequently represented in the tradition of "the jazz guitar
trio"
This is being achieved, among
other things, by working technically with the sound in the band using various
effects on the guitar and the upright bass.
The result is a wide span
of music, from trashy free-punkjazz to smooth, beautiful lullabies, from
diffuse rhythms and harsh harmonies to simple three-chord melodies.
But most important is the
musical collaboration within the trio, and the voices of Mattias and Peter,
that colors and challenges Krister´s compositions, so that the music
evolves and reaches further.
