Tumultr

tumultr is a Norwegian quartet exploring the rich terrain between jazz, post-rock, and experimental music. The band features Thomas Gallatin (drums), Jonas Kilmork Vemøy (trumpet, vocals), Martin Morland (bass), and Markus Lillehaug Johnsen (guitar, vocals). The band has described its music as Worldjazz—not because it strictly belongs to either world music or traditional jazz, but because it reflects an openness to diverse musical references and a listening, improvisational approach to interplay. The aim is to create music that feels both catchy and intricate—commercial in its own idiosyncratic way.
