Emil Brandqvist Trio
Emil Brandqvist is a composer who dares to place melody at the forefront and creates atmospheric jazz music inspired by both folk music and classical music. Along with pianist Tuomas Turunen and bassist Max Thornberg, Brandqvist forms a cohesive trio with fluid dynamic piano jazz as their hallmark.
"Everything is extremely beautiful and well executed, and the sound is excellent" .. "An exceedingly beautiful album" - Salty Peanuts on Emil Brandqvist Trio's "Seascapes"
Emil Brandqvist Trio is currently releasing "Layers of Life," which was released in March 2023. With carefully developed compositions and wise production, it is both an evolution of and a continuation of the unique sound world that the band has created since their album debut, "Breathe Out" (2013).
"Elegiac, cinematic, and atmospheric compositions" - All About Jazz
"This atmospheric album draws inspiration from classical music as well as folk music. Some of the tracks feature catchy pop hooks, making the melodies memorable with a complex layered structure. The guest musicians expand the texture without detracting from the trio's melodies." - All About Jazz
With the six albums that EBT has released on Skip Records, they have established themselves as one of Europe's most exciting jazz trios. Brilliant reviews, outstanding placements on charts in Germany, TV appearances, and over 50 million streams on digital platforms testify to the band's successes.
"Meditative, intricately layered, and at times epic – this is an album with beautiful metaphors" - All About Jazz
In recent years, EBT has excelled with brilliant live performances. Their successes in Germany, with appearances at several of the country’s largest jazz festivals, have been followed by concerts in Sweden, Finland, Austria, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Ireland, France, and South Korea.
"Brandqvist is at his creatively strongest on percussion when the keyboard playing is built on atmospheres, depth, and intensity" - All About Jazz
