Hubro is proud to present the debut recording of the exceptionally talented young piano trio, Moskus. The musical roots of the group are firmly planted in the fertile earth of chamber jazz, but have been nourished by everything from hymns to the films of Ivo Caprino, from the music of Paul and Carla Bley to late-night skiing trips in the mountains, from post-rock to French pancakes and gospel. Pianist Anja Lauvdal, bass player Fredrik Luhr Dietrichson, and drummer Hans Hulbækmo have been part of the creative milieu in the jazz department of the Trondheim Conservatory of Music. Anja and Hans have already made a name for themselves as part of the critically-acclaimed rock bands Your Headlights Are On and The Avalanche/Snøskred. In 2011, Moskus was the first jazz band to win Grappa Record Company's annual "Debut Artist Award." Moskus combines a personal and mature mode of expression, normally found among much older musicians, with youthful energy and unprejudiced openness. The band has a dynamic presence, alternating effortlessly between uninhibited playfulness and introspective solemnity, between free improvisation and composed material. The three members of the group function as equals, and they all contribute as composers. The album Salmesykkel ("Hymn Bicycle," referring to the harmonium/reed organ/pump organ) was recorded in January 2012 at the legendary Atlantis Grammofon Studio, one of the oldest studios in Stockholm, with technician Micke Herrström.
