We find ourselves in a rapidly transforming world. Times are uncertain and alarming in many ways: from global warming and Zlatan’s retirement to the voiceless feelings we face in life’s relentless competition—the challenges seem endless! Thus, many people spiral into a state of apathy and despair! However, this also creates space and opportunity for heroes to step forward - Greta Thunberg, Burna Boy, the Scandinavian Unemployment Insurance Act, Noam Chomsky - just to mention a few. This, my friend, is where Dubbeltrion comes into the picture!
You probably wonder: where does Dubbeltrion find its place on this spectrum of good and bad in the world? With their debut album, “Bringing Scandi-Baltic Powerhouse Jazz to the People” released fall of ’24, Dubbeltrion strives to make the world a better place for me, you and the entire human race! With a deep respect for the spiritual jazz of 1960s African American culture, Dubbeltrion offers a contemporary take on this genre, blending it with their shared Nordic culture and modern influences. The double trio format with two double basses, two saxes and two drummers creates the “powerhouse” feeling and the massive sound that has become signature of the Scandi-Baltic ensemble.
With a fresh and modern approach to jazz combined with inspiration from folk music of their home regions in Tornedalen and Skåne in Sweden, Zealand in Denmark and rural Estonia, the sextet transcends borders to create a sound so powerful that it will heal divisions and serve as a divine inspiration of love and understanding for generations to come.
