Martin Vollertsen is a young pianist and composer from Aarhus. Since graduating from the Royal Academy of Music in 2018, he has left his mark on the Aarhus jazz scene - both as a sideman and as an independent artist.

Martin Vollertsen Trio is a group of close-knit young jazz musicians from Aarhus.

They play Martin Vollertsen's songs with infectious energy and empathy, inspired by many different musical genres such as soul, blues, gospel, and country - but with clear roots in jazz - and, most of all, a commitment to honest in expression and communication.

This results in rustic, urban, and thoughtful jazz compositions with weight and musical inspiration from everything from Duke Ellington and Paul Bley to folk music from around the world. One can easily detect a respect for the icons in the music as well as a desire to challenge the framework of his own works.

Martin Vollertsen released his debut album Hi Again in March 2022.
