Torben Waldorff on tour in March-April featuring music from the new critically acclaimed release American Rock Beauty, Torben's third out on ArtistShare.
The band will feature Montreal based Joel Miller on saxophones, Jon Wikan of New York on drums, Torben Waldorff on guitar. Mattias Welin/Fraser Hollins/Matt Clohesy on bass.
On tour the band will play in Scandinavian cities Copenhagen, Oslo, Malmo, and stateside, Toronto, Montreal, New York City.
Critics have praised Waldorff's previous efforts for their spirit, balance, and the telepathic understanding among band members. These same qualities are all present on American Rock Beauty, as the quintet leads the listener through a sophisticated blend of styles and beats. There is range of musical atmospheres at play on the album, but they all become one in the hands of these dynamic musicians.
Torben's music is well-established in international press after three widely acclaimed ArtistShare CDs and “Best of 2008 and 2010" listings in US, Canada, France, Portugal, Denmark, Sweden.
In Something Else!'s reviews Best Of 2010 we read: “Each of the songs have an undeniable radiant beauty to them, as Waldorff again spins off effortlessly lyrical songs. The Brian Blade Fellowship meets the Pat Metheny Group."
JazzTimes wrote: “American Rock Beauty has earfeel as a fine Burgundy has mouthfeel."
“Never overplaying, Waldorff seems to tease the maximum amount of emotion from every note he plays." —Matt Warnock
Torben was interviewed in Jason Crane's Jazzsession and JazzInside NY and excellent reviews of the outstanding music are published in many countries.
