Lars Danielsson: Signature Edition 3

Read "Signature Edition 3" reviewed by John Kelman


That Swedish bassist Lars Danielsson is a pliant, flexible player who's worked with American artists including John Abercrombie, Pat Metheny, and David Liebman, and notable European names such as Eivind Aarset, Ulf Wakenius, and Nils Petter Molvær isn't much of a secret--at least, not to audiences on the east side of the Atlantic. In North America ...

Norwegian Guitarist Eivind Aarset Interviewed at AAJ...And More!

Norwegian Guitarist Eivind Aarset Interviewed at AAJ...And More!

In a time when the interactive video game Guitar Hero is selling in the millions, Eivind Aarset is, in many ways, the Guitar Anti-Hero.

At the core of the ...

Nils Petter Molvaer: Hamada

Read "Hamada" reviewed by Chris May


Despite ample evidence to the contrary, for many people trumpeter Nils Petter Molvær is synonymous with understated, electronica-drenched, ambient music. The perception gets stronger the further the Norwegian's name travels from its home turf, despite his record company's best efforts. In 2006, Sula Records released the fierce, high temperature An American Compilation, partly to increase Molvær's ...

Mike Mainieri: Man Behind Bars

Read "Mike Mainieri: Man Behind Bars" reviewed by John Kelman


It's hard to imagine vibraphonist Mike Mainieri in his seventies.
