Jörgen Lind has a long career as a poet behind him. With Albert Bonniers Förlag, he has previously published Åtel (2018), Mott (2020), and Reservatet (2023).
He received the Swedish Radio Poetry Prize in 2015, and in 2023 he was awarded the Gustaf Fröding Society’s Poetry Prize, “for a significant and long-standing body of poetic work in which, through his musical and painfully concrete language, he illuminates how human beings are struck by grief and anger in the face of transience and loss.” In 2024, he was awarded the Dobloug Prize.
Eivind Aarset is one of Norway’s most in-demand guitarists with a unique musical vision that absorbs and reflects all manner of music while retaining an enviable individualism and high quality craftsmanship that can span from quiet intimacy to searing intensity. His debut as a bandleader on Jazzland Recordings was described by the New York Times as “One of the best post-Miles electric jazz albums,” setting a high benchmark that Aarset has consistently met and exceeded, both in the studio and in live performance.
