  • Description

    The bedrock of Norwegian band EH3, led by Norwegian guitarist Erland Helbo, is jazz-rock with a solid pointer to the American tradition, based on the blues, but with jazz's expanded language and harmonic richness. It's also not possible to escape the influence of soul, funk, and classic rhythm & blues. In the Norwegian jazz/rock guitar tradition, we also have musicians who have left their own mark on Erland Helbo and further developed the tonal language of EH3: Terje Rypdal and Jon Eberson for instance.

    Erland Helbo: guitars

    Frode Ågedal Berg: bass

    Erik Smith: drums

    Guests:

    Knut Løchsen: keyboards, synth

    Brynjulf Blix: Hammond organ

    All compositions by Erland Helbø

    Recorded January 2025 by Anders Verde at Schizophonia Studio, Jessheim, Norway
