Melodic Modern Jazz

Look forward to hearing some outstanding jazz musicians with superb energy and virtuosic ensemble playing when Morten Haugshøj Group & The Street Doctors visit the cozy Café Gemmestedet, which will be transformed into a lively venue during the jazz festival.

The band consists of the fantastic Jesper Løvdal on tenor sax, the terrific Espen Laub von Liljenskjold on drums, the wonderful Simon Eskildsen on piano, as well as the tasteful – and skilled – Thomas Sejthen on bass.

Morten Haugshøj himself is an exciting and accomplished jazz guitarist and composer from Aarhus with an international outlook. His technical and artistic development in recent years has been undeniable.

Morten Haugshøj Group & The Street Doctors play melodic modern jazz with New York wildness and influences from bebop, as well as from the romanticism and lyricism of the North. The result is a relevant, versatile, and intense concert experience. Simply put, you can look forward to a series of catchy tunes that will not escape your inner mental melodic horizon.

"Recently, Jazzselskabet Aarhus invited us to a concert with Morten Haugshøj Group & The Street Doctors. It was a great concert in a warm and cozy atmosphere. Jazzselskabet had previously been visited by the group a few years ago, and it was clear this time that The Street Doctors had refined their expression: The ensemble was impressively precise, and the individual songs were delivered with energy and joy."
Henrik Schultz-Pedersen, Jazzselskabet Aarhus.

"It was truly an enriching musical experience when Morten Haugshøj Group visited Sønderborg Jazzclub for the second time. The common musical resonance was fully unfolded by the musicians as individuals, but also in a very powerful ensemble under the natural authority of the bandleader. The music was dynamic and balanced, and got the musical edges and corners going through a good and responsive dialog with the Sunday jazz crowd."
Carsten Nicolaisen, Chairman Sønderborg Jazz Club.
