Jazz guitarist and composer Mathias “The Doctor” Sandberg will go on tour with his trio in July.
Called "one of Finland's best kept secrets", the highly acclaimed guitarist and composer Mathias Sandberg is one of the hardest working jazz musicians in the country. He has studied at Manhattan School of Music in New York and Berklee College of Music in Boston and worked with artists such as Georg Riedel, Pierre Swärd, Peter Asplund, Nick Mancini, Jukka Eskola, Teppo Mäkynen and Manuel Dunkel. Sandberg plays a hundred or so concerts a year and has toured both Europe and United States.
Sandberg's long-awaited trio album The Doctor, released in September 2020, has received both huge critical review and airplay on jazz radio stations in Europe, United States, South America, Asia and Australia. The trio with Zacharias Holmkvist on bass and Stefan Brokvist on drums showcases a unique blend of hard swingin', groovy and soulful jazz with strong melodic writing, rhythmically playful improvisation and a delightful, almost telepathic interplay.
”This is an excellent album... swings from start to finish” (Jazz Journal, UK)
”Superb debut album... such a fresh take on the genre...
his tone is gorgeous throughout... as tight as it gets.” (Rochester City News, USA)
”Maailmanluokkainen on se sana, joka levystä The Doctor nousee väistämättä mieleen...
yksi Suomen parhaiten varjelluista salaisuuksista. Todellakin!” (Karjalainen)
”The perfect musical medication for any occasion” (All About Jazz, USA)
