Teis Semey has shot to the front of the cohort of youngsters who have flooded the European jazz ports, and Amsterdam in particular, with new creative energy in the last few years.
The guitar skills of this brilliant Danish talent are an engine that needs no fuel; instead, his power comes from deep reflection and a mathematical approach to band-leading, where the dosage is organised and always proportionate to the tempo and the melodies that emerge from their collaboration. Indie jazz as a response to tradition and the imagination we’ve been missing.
This concert is part of the Footprints programme, which is supported by Creative Europe.
