Half Nelson Courtship
is the third album and the first on Rune Grammofon from this Trondheim-based trio who musically started out as the younger cousins of
Supersilent
. This is not the situation today, and this album shows a group with a stronger identity, a clearer focus and more mature and fully-developed musical ideas and directions. If pressed for comparisons, 1973-period
King Crimson
concert improvisations wouldn't be too far off the mark. But Puma is first and foremost a contemporary and progressive unit making their own path on the ever-growing Norwegian experimental scene mixing improvisation, jazz, electronics and free rock.
Øystein Moen
studied at the Trondheim Jazz Conservatory, a famous breeding-ground for a host of Norwegian jazz musicians over the years. Aside from
Puma
, he is a member of
Jaga Jazzist
and Norwegian pop sensation
Susanne Sundfør
's band, and also plays with ECM artist and trumpeter
Mathias Eick
.
Gard Nilssen
also studied at the Trondheim Jazz Conservatory and has, like so many other young Norwegian musicians, played with a number of jazz, rock and pop artists. He's currently also a member of
Bushman's Revenge
,
Humvee
,
Lord Kelvin
and Susanne Sundfør's band. Recorded and mixed by
Jørgen Træen
. Puma are: Øystein Moen (keyboards, electronics),
Stian Westerhus
(guitar, electronics), and Gard Nilssen (drums).
