Press
‘Name of the Wind’ is Erlend's second album as a bandleader and composer (his debut album, ‘A Glass Door,’ was released in 2018). It presents a new musical direction, featuring electro-acoustic landscapes with sounds, rhythms, and instruments from traditional music in Norway, North India and Morocco on the horizon.
The group moves from scenery to scenery so quickly that one wonders if their bandwagon might be a time machine. As they approach you, remember that although they insist, you should wait to answer their question: is this where jazz is?
