• Jazz & Fly Fishing is a ‘cream of the crop’ Scandinavian jazz group where all four members are passionate fly fishermen ! Their jazz is cool, fluid, and swinging, with a subtle funky groove.

• In 2009, they dedicated one year of their lives to a Jazz & Fly Fishing tour around Finland, Sweden and Norway - playing gigs at big festivals, small jazz clubs and arctic villages alike. Needless to say, they spent all their spare time fly fishing beautiful rapids and peaceful mountain lakes. The tour was filmed to make a TV series.

• Is there a connection between jazz and fly fishing ? Well, perhaps in philosophy and approach. Fly fishing is a delicate improvisers’ game if there ever was one, a world of interwoven details and layers of meaning - requiring reflective patience but then lightning reactions, as in jazz. Both are seriously addictive and endlessly rich with information and history.

• Havard Stubo is one of Norway’s finest jazz guitarists; Joona Toivanen one of Finland’s leading young pianists; Tapani Toivanen is one of Finland’s very best young bass players; and Fredrik Hamra is one of Sweden’s most creative drummers.
