16. February 2010 >

This short article came from New Musical Express "Time Out London":

Nils Petter Molvaer Band
"Norwegian trumpeter, producer and composer Molvaer stops off on his UK tour with his feisty new band of guitarist Eivind Arset, drummer Audun Kleive and sample genius Jan Bang, playing dark and moody material from his latest album 'Hamada' (Emarcy). His fine fusion of breakbeats, ambient sounds and spooky atmospherics - which have established him as one of the leading lights of 'Scandijazz' - are further enhanced by an eye-popping light show."

seems that they are providing "olds": correct lineup should be Molvaer-Westerhus-Kleive. on tour:

3. February 2010 > It's no secret that Scandinavia has been a musical hotspot for the past decade; artists in Norway and Sweden have been churning out deeply pleasurable pop, rock and electronic music, making a worldwide splash unseen since the days of Abba. The jazz, improvisational and experimental music of the region attract far less attention, but artistically, few other spots seem as potent these days. Both Sweden and Norway have deep jazz traditions. Swedish artists like Lars Gullin, Arne Domnerus and Jan Johansson first put the country on the map, while Norwegian jazz made itself felt through key releases on the German label ECM in the early '70s, when artists like Jan Garbarek, Terje Rypdal and Arild Andersen developed a new sound that tapped into local folk traditions with an austere, pastel sound.
