Katarina Lien Trio

The Katarina Lien Trio consists of Katarina Lien (vocals), Bård Helgerud (guitar), and Jens Fossum (bass). The three musicians share a fondness for melodic jazz and improvised interaction. Bård Helgerud's guitar playing is characterized by melodic sensitivity, harmonic depth, and a strong presence in the ensemble. As an improviser, he combines technical prowess with a rare good ear for what is happening around him. Jens Fossum has established himself over many years as one of the country's most active and sought-after jazz bassists, known for his solid groove, musical surplus, and ability to elevate any ensemble. The trio plays music rooted in the jazz tradition, creating an open and vibrant expression where melodies, improvisation, and musical curiosity are given equal prominence. The interplay is marked by freedom, spontaneity, and joy in playing, and the open format with vocals, guitar, and bass allows ample space for each musician. CC: 200 Doors: 19:00 Concert: 19:30
