Info for Way out West

In the Way Out West trio you will meet musicians Atle Nymo (sax), Magne Thormodsæter (bass) and Hermund Nygård (drums). The trio started a few years ago as a tribute to Sonny Rollins, and plays music based on Rollins' rich trio repertoire. Sonny Rollins created a new expression when in 1957 he chose to omit the piano from his band. The record "Way out west" from this year is regarded as a bauta, and the trio format with saxophone, bass and drums has since been established as a classic in jazz music.

This spring, this star team of musicians living in Bergen and Oslo will explore and present Rollins' music in a fresh, outgoing and melodic context. Although the repertoire has slowly changed to a mix of Sonny's melodies and self-composed material, the energetic vibe of his legendary trio is still present. The repertoire sounds dewy and the band will also be releasing their debut album in connection with this tour.

The musicians are known from bands such as Motif, Ensemble Denada, The Real Thing, Hilde Louise Asbjørnsen, Svein Olav Herstad Trio, I.P.A and Bergen Big Band.
