Gard Nilssen’s Acoustic Unity

“Gard Nilssen is one of Europe’s most creative improvising drummers, with a fresh approach to rhythm and freedom. Elastic Wave [ECM, 2022] presents the Norwegian’s powerhouse trio, Acoustic Unity. With André Roligheten on tenor, soprano and bass saxophones and clarinet, and Petter Eldh on double bass, the dynamic interaction, swinging sense of pulse and boldly etched themes are defining attributes of a group that perform with panache and conviction, forging a clear identity along the way.” – UK Vibe
