NORTH TRIO

Peter Ehwald saxophon
Henrik Jensen bass
Wolfgang Höhn drums

Peter Ehwald and Wolfgang Hoehn had already worked together in various groups in Germany including their 2003 Trio release "Away with Words" ( on Jazzhausmusik / (www.jazzhausmusik.de) with Cologne bass player Friedrich Stoermer on which they honored the music of guitarist John Scofield. In 2004 they met London based bass player Henrik Jensen who from then on completes this Trio. With a harmony instrument missing in their set up, the three musicians gain a lot of freedom and space in their interplay. Each band member contributes with original material to form a very melodic group sound. They have been excessively touring in Germany from small venues to Festivals like the "Jazztransfer Saabrücken. On tour they also came up with the new band name inspired by Ehwald's constant misleading directions as a co driver: NORTH!!!
