Jacob Artved has rapidly established himself as one of the most prominent and brilliant stars on the Scandinavian jazz scene. Admitted to the Rhythmic Music Conservatory at just 15 years old—the youngest student ever—he soon chose to relocate to New York City to immerse himself in the genre the traditional way: through endless jam sessions in the city’s vibrant club scene. Jacob is renowned for his dazzling technique, a crystal-clear, signature guitar tone, and a remarkably mature grasp of both traditional bebop and contemporary jazz styles. With critically acclaimed releases like Live at Jazzhus Montmartre (featuring drum legend Louis Hayes) and the ambitious, classically-inspired album Metamorphosis, he proves to be a masterful keeper of the flame with a bold, modern vision.
