As if Garner himself were there... 

Errol Garner, the great American jazz pianist and melody interpreter by the grace of God, would have turned 100 in 2021.

Gunde On Garner has been around since 1995, and the trio's dedicated goal is to play in Garner's spirit, but with their own arrangements of both Danish and international songs.

Starting with a good tune, regardless of whether it comes from the world of jazz, rock, or pop, Gunde On Garner approaches a style the master himself might have had if he had lived today. And yet, with Henrik Gunde, one of the country's busiest jazz musicians, at the helm, they also very much have their own take on things, carried along by Nicolas Kock and Karsten Bagge's creative, swinging, and energetic playing.

In celebration of the 100th anniversary of Garner's birth, Gunde On Garner performs a special anniversary show that both pays tribute to Garner's distinctive swing and style while surprising with their choice of songs and an outgoing joy of playing that lets the music take you somewhere new every time.

Gunde On Garner has released three feel-good albums on STUNT Records: Songs that could have been played by Erroll Garner - if he had only known them... (2007), GOG Plays Bent Fabric (2009), and Live at Jazzcup (2011).
