Tuva Bergenheim

Drummer, songwriter and bandleader Tuva Bergenheim comes to Fasching with her debut album Skärgårdsjazz. The lyrics are in Swedish and draw on her upbringing in the archipelago and the storybook world of Astrid Lindgren. “Summery imagery in the spirit of [Swedish poet] Beppe Wolgers,” writes Jan Gradvall in Dagens industri.

Her music is rooted in the Swedish jazz tradition, with an easy swing, strong melodies and drums that act as both engine and narrator. Besides songs from the debut, the band plays new material from the upcoming album. Among the musicians joining her is vocalist Emmalisa Hallander.

“With youthful sensibility, she’s creating jazz with a unique worldview”
– Makoto Goto, Jazz Life Japan
