A delicious, groovy, and intense soundtrack for the weekend magic

Weekend Sax features interpretations of Friday's anticipation, Saturday's wondrous nightlife, the romantic encounter, the hot dance, and Sunday's tranquility and wistful daydreams.

With humor, presence, and a cool groove, familiar tunes are performed from a musical treasure trove inspired by the likes of Dexter Gordon, Sonny Rollins, Branford Marsalis, Robert Glasper, and Christian Scott.

Bjarne Slipsager is a groovy and expressive saxophonist, known from Sam & The Soulmates and The Tarantino Twist Show.

Peter Friis is known by many for his swinging, musical, and groovy bass playing, which has been heard with Jesper Thilo, Finn Odderskov, and Karmen Rõivassepp.

Kristoffer Lysgaard is one of the most charismatic drummers on the Danish jazz scene. With inciting, virtuosic, playful, and energetic playing, he always makes the music roar.
