Brutally funky prog jazz

Jazz, prog, and psychedelia; Elephant9 can take anyone's breath away. With Ståle Storløkken (Supersilent, Motorpsycho, BOL), Nikolai Hængsle Eilertsen (Big Bang) and Torstein Lofthus (Shining, Red Kite), we know that the music is served tight and virtuosic with enormous energy - and a trio that is not afraid to go back in music history to create new expressions with nods to Tangerine Dreams, King Crimson, Jimi Henrix and Deep Purple. The band has become a live favorite at both rock and jazz festivals in recent years and ten records later they are finally back at Nattjazz where they had their big breakthrough.
