Espen Eriksen Trio + Andy Sheppard

Andy Sheppard – Tenor Sax

Espen Eriksen – Piano and Compositions

Lars Tormod Jenset – Double Bass

Andreas Bye – Drums

This Norwegian trio first teamed up with Andy Sheppard in 2016 and achieved a remarkable symbiosis from the very beginning. A first album was released in 2018, followed by two more. The last of these - prophetically named “As Good as it Gets” - was elected the 6th best Jazz Album of 2023 by Jazzwise magazine.

The Trio was originally formed in 2007 and has released seven albums and toured extensively across four continents, firmly establishing their captivatingly melodic and unique group sound.

Andy Sheppard – I need hardly tell you – is a major award-winning artist and one of Europe’s leading saxophonists and composers.
