Drummer Erik Nylander is a busy man on the norwegian jazz scene, playing in numerous bands in all sorts of styles such as Ola Kvernberg Trio og Kobert. After thinking a long time of making his own orchestra, he gathered a bunch of collegues in the studio. He is now launching his first self-produced album with this band, February 6, 2010.


Behind the name Erik Nylanders orkester six musicians play in several constellations, experimenting in a wide range of character.  The sound of A FESTA VALE TUDO could remind you of Sigur Rós, Jim Black or even pling plong and indian raga music. Melancolic, beautiful and a little abstract.


The album will be released through the label Parallell , and Erik Nylanders orkester will be playing some pieces in occasion of Parallell´s label night on the 6th of February 2010.


Produced by Erik Nylander. Co-produced by Thomas Hukkelberg at Desibel.no.
