Søren Bebe Trio - Here Now (2023)

Celebrated and praised by critics and audiences alike as a torchbearer of Scandinavian jazz akin to the likes of Esbjörn Svensson and Tord Gustavsen, Danish pianist Søren Bebe proudly presents his trio’s seventh studio album.

Founded in 2007, the Søren Bebe Trio have cemented themselves as a cornerstone of European jazz with performances at leading festivals and venues in Hong Kong, South Korea, Morocco, Brazil, Poland, the USA and Denmark.

‘Here Now’ follows the critical acclaim of their 2019 release ‘Echoes’ and marks a new era for the trio, welcoming Norwegian drummer Knut Finsrud into the ensemble for the first time alongside bassist Kasper Tagel.

Seeking inspiration from his heroes of past and present including Tord Gustavsen, Espen Eriksen, Misha Alperin and Jan Johansson, Bebe explores narrative themes of slowing down and seeking presence and gratitude through delicate melodies and a folk-like simplicity.
