Two of Denmark's most dedicated and progressive jazz musicians join forces with acclaimed U.S. drummer Allan Mednard for a unique concert at Christiania Jazz Club.
Drawing on a wide range of influences - from post-Andrew Hill free improvisation to Scandinavian roots - Simon Linnert stands out as one of the most versatile pianists of his generation. Having lived in the U.S. for several years, he has worked and performed with artists such as Kenny Wollesen, Caleb Curtis, Chris Higgins, and Tony Scherr. He has also ventured into film, scoring documentaries by Oscar-nominated director Simon Lereng Wilmont, among other projects.
Brooklyn-based drummer Allan Mednard is one of the most sought-after musicians on the New York jazz scene. Born and raised in Queens, NY, Mednard's unique talent has drawn a lot of attention lately, and he regularly performs with notable ensembles led by prominent figures like Ravi Coltrane, Jeremy Pelt, and Kurt Rosenwinkel. Simon and Allan met in New York in 2019, where Mednard contributed to Simon's album Of Visions.
Renowned bassist and composer Richard Andersson is hailed as one of the most intriguing voices in Scandinavian jazz. His unique and detailed attention to sound and time has led him to work with international luminaries such as Jeff "Tain" Watts, Sullivan Fortner, Tony Malaby, and Bill McHenry. He has released several albums under his own name and remains one of the most in-demand musicians in Europe.
