Street Level, by explores the ground of progressive rock, jazz, blues and funk. The trio performs their own compositions and re-arranged songs by Joe Zawinul, Beatles and Ray Charles with plenty of space for creative improvisation.

Gustavson/Strandberg/Törnroos Street Level was founded in 2017 to perform a few gigs. Since the common groove between the three musicians was easily found, the trio decided to continue the project. The name, Street Level, was inspired by their first gig, which was played at the street level of Cafe Rongo in Porvoo.

Jukka Gustavson; vocals & keyboard
Jan-Olof Strandberg; bass
Thomas Törnroos; drums
