Best Western Swing

Door opens: 21:30 Single ticket price: NOK 390

Best Western Swing is five musicians united in their love for western swing, horse jazz, bææ-bop and other rural expressions of jazzified dance music from the American southern states, such as Bob Wills, Spade Cooley, Jimmy Bryant/Speedy West and Hank Garland. In a wider perspective, it can be called "instrumental electric Americana".

Best Western Swing (which are by no means orthodox museum guardians) is led by Asle Røe, originally from Molde but with twelve years as a professional guitarist in Houston, Texas. The team includes 60% of Farmers Market: Stian Carstensen on steel guitar and accordion, Finn Guttormsen on bass and Jarle Vespestad on drums, as well as guitarist Staffan William-Olsson from The Real Thing. Number of strings in total: 36.

Asle Roe – guitar
