Hans Olding Trio
Contemporary and exploring guitar trio with roots in the tradition, consisting of some of Stockholm's finests.
After a series of Swedish and international collaborations and work with co-lead octet Stockholm Jazz Underground in recent years, seasoned guitarist Hans Olding released his first trio record ”Way Station” (El Dingo Records) in 2022, where he explores the guitar and its unique sound. The album has received acclaims in both Swedish and international press:
”I believe the album’s obvious quality deserves unreserved appreciation…the rhythm section is of course superb…The trio’s intuitive interplay is characterized by open-minded precision.”
Orkesterjournalen
”Everything in the trio’s playing is solid, well-balanced and carried by individual brilliance, without any hint of mirror tricks or audience flirtations…Way station is a record that will help sum up the Swedish jazz year of 2022”.

The music is contemporary and exploratory with strong roots in the tradition, where Hans in his composing has experimented with the unique possibilities of the guitar, changing rhythms and longer musical forms, always with strong melodies that hold the sound together and invite the listener.
