Black Motor on Finnish tour
The members of this improvising trio hail from Central Finland and West Coast, but the oil that burns in this machine is drilled from the rich and organic musical ground of Pispala esker, Tampere. That’s probably the reason why Black Motor sounds like a brotherhood of jazz and rock. The band narrows its influences down to “the continuum of Afro-American music, the many shades of blues ambiance, from swing to free jazz and punk rock”.
