One of Denmark's most prominent bassists, J esper Lundgaard formed his own jazz trio in 2004 along with Hans Ulrik (Tenor Sax) and Niclas Knudsen (Guitar). The trio describes their music as a playground where they try out new compositions and pay homage to great icons in the history of Jazz. The Jesper Lundgaard Trio 's album 2016 contains recordings of 8 original compositions written by each band member and an updated version of two standards: “ The meaning of the Blues ” by Bobby Troup and “ Naima ” by John Coltrane. The music is fresh, lyrical and blues oriented with a gentle touch of Nordic folklore. “ This album investigates some blues aspects, reflecting the times and our personal impressions. Not every theme is strictly a blues progression, but they all have a bluesy feel. We have tried to create an intimate, dry and intense album, utilizing a minimalistic approach ” says Jesper Lundgaard .
