Soundhouse: Erik Palmberg Quartet

"The quartet itself goes where the music takes them with elite improvisational skills. They play off each other gently, in service of the music, not of themselves. Faces is a triumph of Jazz expressionism" - All About Jazz, USA

Erik Palmberg Quartethas gained a lot international attention recent years and the group is one of the most interesting Scandinavian jazz acts today. Their sound is lyrical and melodic contemporary jazz, steeped in tradition.

The new album Faces has received a lot of great reviews from all over Europe, including the UK, and this is the first UK tour for the quartet.
