The debut album from Tuuri.The four musicians are well-established protagonists of the European jazz scene

The music of Free Swing really sounds fresh; the four musicians whirl through eleven tracks with a lot of energy, all of which are their own compositions except for one Brahms arrangement. The songs are not only vehicles for improvisations, but also captivate with original themes such as the Latin infuence in Almqvist's "Welin in Acapulco" or the beautiful ballad "Near Birches, Birds and Bees", which Axel Schlosser composed. A piece by Axel Schlosser, with which the album closes, proves that Free Swing, despite its enthusiasm for freedom, has also preserved a heart for tradition: "If There Is No Blues…" Artists:Free SwingMattias Welin - BassJaska Lukkarinen - DrumsKarl- Martin Almqvist - Tenor SaxophoneAxel Schlosser - Trumpet
