Jungle fever in the circus: The cheering lifted the roof during this concert and it’s a miracle that we didn´t all descend to civil disobedience, kicked down the tables and started dancing. (Audun Vinger, Jazz i Norge).
We are planning an album release and Norwegian tour in November this year, and hope to bring this music out into the world in 2022!
