Glødetrådar, the commissioned work for Vossajazz 2016, is a sort of "back to the roots" for Nils Økland. The area of Voss has been an important part of his musical development, in the '80s as a student and later as the musical leader at Ole Bull Akademiet (1989-95). His time at the academy gave him important impulses that inspired his characteristic, personal style: the mix between jazz, free improvisation, contemporary music, and folk music. In this work, Økland holds true to his unique style with simple melodies and a sincere tone that go straight to the heart. At one moment it's calm and meditative, the next you find ourselves in a rock universe with the distortion turned to max.
