Hard swingin’, groovy and soulful jazz
He has been called ”one of Finland’s best kept secrets”, the highly acclaimed guitarist and
composer Mathias Sandberg is one of the hardest working jazz musicians in the country.
He has studied at Manhattan School of Music in New York and Berklee College of Music in
Boston and worked with artists such as Georg Riedel, Pierre Swärd, Peter Asplund, Nick
Mancini, Jukka Eskola, Teppo Mäkynen and Manuel Dunkel. Sandberg plays a hundred or
so concerts a year and has toured both Europe and the United States.
Mathias Sandberg’s debut solo album The Doctor (2020) has received both huge critical
review and airplay on jazz radio stations in Europe, United States, South America, Asia
and Australia.
Sandberg’s highly anticipated new trio album The Captain will be released in March 2023,
and showcases his unique blend of hard swingin’, groovy and soulful jazz with strong
melodic writing, rhythmically playful improvisation and a delightful, almost telepathic
interplay between the three.
