#scandinavianjazz — Public Fediverse posts

I love that Scandinavian jazz. Obsessed. A while ago, I made a playlist of mostly Scandinavian jazz vocalists, all female, though a few hail from other places--they were just some of my faves and I couldn't resist. Time for a male jazz vocalist playlist with a Scandinavian emphasis or simply modern European male jazz vocalists. Not a bad pastime--making playlists--and a way to avoid all soul-crushing US news. lols . #ScandinavianJazz #jazzvocal https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2VQxeevcgHJd93eW2VMMJO?si=3UT5VvrzScGwCxEekkrHUA

I heard this on Spotify's Norah Jones Radio--the only radio, lols--and was deeply moved. I thought I would share. If it makes someone else's Monday better.... #ScandinavianJazz #jazzvocal https://youtu.be/oUrWcEpouDQ?si=q6VgvrQoYm1StwCJ

Good morning. #Monday

For #InternationalJazzDay, I offer my playlist of mostly Scandinavian female jazz vocalists, combined with ladies representing other parts of the world, ladies I just had to add. I hope you are having a beautiful day today. #Jazz #Jazzvocals #ScandinavianJazz 💜 🌺 🦋 🎶 https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2VQxeevcgHJd93eW2VMMJO?si=c608afaecbda4cea

Excited to hear the latest from Hvalfugl, "Bag Vore Øjne Strømmer Drømme Sagte Forbi" which translates to "Behind Our Eyes Dreams Flow Slowly By". A three-piece usually, guitar/bass/piano, I love all their stuff, peaceful and wonderfully melodic.
