Tingvall Trio

Martin Tingvall, Omar Rodriguez Calvo, Jürgen Spiegel: a Swede, a Cuban and a German. Three men who have made Hamburg their home. A pianist, a base player, a drummer. Together they create an unmistakable sound all its own. A sound and songs which even appeal to people who normally don't listen to jazz. That’s the Tingvall Trio.

With concerts in more than 30 countries, a full measure of accolades including the German ECHO JAZZ as "Ensemble of the Year“ and "Live Act of the Year“, Jazz awards in gold for each of the trio's studio albums, No. 1 on the Jazz charts and even high ranking on the Pop charts, the trio's popularity has attained a level usually marked by current pop bands.

And yet, Tingvall Trio are just three friends who still love to make music together. This autumn their new album Dance will be released.
