I'm listening to the new album on Spotify.  I'm not sure if there are any other on-line links to their music but I think fans of Elephant9 type music will appreciate this.  Lots of sax.

Yes, I've done a split gig with them in 2018 and have played with the guitarist on several occasions. Cool jazz-rock quartet, although I'm not particularly into that kind of music (anymore). But very impressive stuff!

I did a mistake here. It's DAVID Wallumrød on Hammond, Clavinet etc., not Christian Wallumrød, who is his cousin.

It's absolutely superb. I love the "down to earth"-vibe of both the songs and the instrumentation and production.

Oh man, I gotta be honest, I really didn't enjoy that Jordsjo single :(

I like most the music I listen to and I really wanted to love this thing, but I think it sounds a little samey to their past works. It's a little schizophrenic with its structure, transitions, and it never really properly developed any of the ideas before moving onto the next thing. I also felt that it was just lacking in the melody department. I didn't like their last album as much as Jord, but yeah, I really hope the rest of the album is better :/

Favorite of 2021...so far.  The guitarist from Oak ventures out on his own...with the help of three members of Wobbler and several other folks.

I think the title track is amazing and a real gem of a song, but the rest of the album was not that interesting (to me).

Jordsjø's next album, Pastoralia, to release on May 7th. Vinyl, CD and digital on Bandcamp.

I'll hold off on singles until the album is out.
