Joakim Rainer Trio Light.Sentence

This exciting and young piano trio lead by Joakim Rainer Petersen consists of some of Norways most active young jazz musicians. They play with their eyes directed forward while being rooted in the classic piano trio format. The music is spontaneous and playful, and rhythmically captivating. The compositions build complex shapes and asymmetric loops. The trio draws lines to composers and musicians such as Andrew Hill, Paul Bley and Kris Davis! A particularly exciting mix of expressions that are combined with listening, playing and focused interaction.

The Joakim Rainer trio was titled Norwegian Young Jazz Musicians of the Year when they won Jazzintro at Molde International Jazzfestival 2022. We’re very happy to release their amazing debut album on Sonic Transmissins. The album is released on a beautiful LP with cover art by Adrian Borge.
