First & Foremost / Various - First & Foremost Music CD

This new album is a mix of classics and originals performed by the Erik Lundeqvist Trio, a Swedish trio with a passion for real swinging, improvisational music rooted in the jazz tradition with a modern touch. Based in Malmo, Sweden, the Sven Erik Lundeqvist Trio is Sven Erik Lundeqvist on piano, Simon Petersson on bass, and Olle Dernevik on percussion. The group is forward-thinking, aggressive, and in your face, but don't worry- you won't be pushed away. These three musicians know what they are doing and join one another in a fruitful and supportive cooperation. This is new Swedish jazz with heart, soul, and energy.
