Lyrical, modern jazz

Morten Haugshøj Group has become a household name on the jazz scene with the recently released album The Street Doctor, which received an abundance of positive reviews. A five-star review in Fyens Stiftstidende reads:

'We have not had a Danish jazz release with such a tight and seasoned ensemble for quite a while (...)'.

Gaffa's Ivan Rod wrote:

'The music is excellent. It simply swings (...)Street Doctor is an energetic album of an international calibre. The music has edge and clout, artistic nerve, technical skill in every aspect. Thus, we have hope that this album opens the door to an international audience for the expressive composer, bandleader, and guitarist, and his group.'

The music can best be described as lyrical, modern jazz inspired both by New York and 'Nordic jazz', was written by guitarist, composer, and bandleader Morten Haugshøj.

The repertoire is quite diverse with good melodies an intense, intimate, and energetic ensembles and teamwork being the common denominator.
