Their first album Live was recorded at the Glenn Miller Café in Stockholm in 2001 and was released in 2002 on Dragon Records. This was actually the first time this trio played together and the album, featuring evergreens and jazz standards was a great success. The trio has been on several tours, performing standards as well as original music in their open minded way. The trio format with saxophone, bass and drums is naked and demanding but also full of possibilities with a lot of room for all members. This second album Mayday! includes some tunes that has been played by the trio for years as well as some new, interesting material composed by Nordström for this studio session. This is music; swinging, lyrical, urban as well as inspired by folk music, filled with great interplay, beautiful melodies and even some surprises. Modern jazz, if you prefer. Fredrik Nordström (b.1974) is a very productive and creative musician and composer. This is his 9th album as a leader. He was elected Jazz musician of the year (Jazz i Sverige) in 2002 and has performed with musicians such as Bobo Stenson, Mat Maneri, Gerald Cleaver, Björn Yttling and Lindha Kallerdal. Palle Danielsson (b.1946) is a living legend. Over the years he has been part of bands led by Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett, Charles Lloyd, Peter Erskine, Elvin Jones, Tomasz Stanko and Michel Petrucciani to name a few. Fredrik Rundqvist (b.1970) has been heard on stage and albums in a lot of different creative surroundings like his father (pianist) Gösta Rundqvist, Ingebrigt Håker Flaten, Anna Ternheim, Lindha Kallerdal, Sarah Blasko and Steven Gauci.
