Ola Ringström Sextett - Stockholm Swing

Review by Vincent Finetti

The Stockholm Swing album by Ola Ringström Sextett is a delightful collection of jazz tunes that showcases the musicians' talent and passion for the genre. The album features a mix of original compositions and jazz standards, all performed with precision and finesse.

The sextet consists of Ola Ringström on trumpet, Jonas Kullhammar on saxophone, Mikael Godée on clarinet, Martin Sjöstedt on bass, Chris Montgomery on drums, and Mathias Landaeus on piano. Together, they create a dynamic and cohesive sound that is both energetic and soothing.

The album opens with the upbeat and catchy "Stockholm Swing," a tune that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Other notable tracks include "Satin Doll," which features an impressive saxophone solo by Kullhammar, and "Swedish Summer," a beautiful ballad that highlights Ringström's trumpet playing.
