Rezensionen

Politiken

“Falgren plays with attitude, tonally walking the walk, with a style that
can remind of Stuff Smiths, only more musical”
Boris Rabinowitsch


Soundvenue.dk

“I have never heard such heart-torn violin playing in jazz before this
record. The band's own tunes are so good that they actually outshine the rest of
their repertoire”
Thomas Broge-Starck

Jazz Special

“Hot 'n Spicy have such an enormous presence on stage, and they killed
the audience with a blazing version of Chick Corea's Armando's Rumba.”
Jens Jørn Gjeldsted

Jazz Stage

“Hot'n Spicy was one of the highlights of the Stockholm Jazz Festival.”
Lars Beck


Aftenposten

“These three musicians, all in their twenties, have found their very own
musical language; Unique, but always 100 percent natural.”
Stein Kagge

Info

In September 2002, Hot 'n Spicy released their debut Journey on Cope
records. In that year, they had almost a hundred concerts, playing all
over Scandinavia, including clubs and venues such as Copenhagen Jazz
House, Fasching, Copenhagen Jazz Festival, Molde Jazz Festival and
Stockholm Jazz Festival. The band has also had numerous radio and
television appearances in Norway, Sweden and Denmark.

"Hot 'n Spicy is an eminent modern string trio. The two Norwegians Lars Tormod Jenset (bass) and Svein-Erik Martinsen (guitar/vocals) are in perfect rhythmical balance with the Dane Bjarke Falgren (violin and percussion stunts), who is infact the hardest swinging jazz-fiddler I´ve heard since "Stuff" Smith. Their repertoire has an incredible span, and you can tell from the crowd reactions on the live recordings on their new CD, that this trio must be the real thing, and a pleasure to watch on stage
