After his musical outings with reggae legends Sly & Robbie on the album "Nordub" in 2018 and on "SulaMadiana" with percussionist Mino Cinelu in 2020, Norwegian trumpeter Nils Petter Molvaer has now recorded another album with his quartet: "Stitches". A big hit.
Eleven songs were recorded by the band, which in addition to Molvær consists of drummer Erland Dahlen, bassist Jo Berger Myhre and guitarist Johan Lindstrøm. Their collaboration first began at Ocean Sound Recordings on the Norwegian island of Giske and later, when the pandemic broke out, the musical exchange took place online.
But, despite the sudden change in the way the four musicians interact, the song material has not taken a hit. On the contrary, "Stitches" thrives on spontaneity and flow of playing. It is powerful, atmospheric, sometimes melancholic and above all colourful, because Dahlen, Myhre and Lindstrøm were given full artistic freedom by Molvær in co-creating the songs.
The album's eleven tracks were later assembled and mixed by Jon Marius Areskjold and Molvær himself at Kysten Studio in Tromsø. All tracks were written by Nils Petter, with the exception of the Radiohead cover "True Love Waits".
