Mats Eilertsen ‘SkyDive’

A year on from the release of his supremely elegant SkyDive LP, Norwegian bassist and composer Mats Eilertsen finally brings the album tour to Tokyo. Saxophonist Tore Brunborg has been replaced by Fredrik Lundin for these shows, but otherwise the band is the same as on the record, with guitarist Thomas T. Dahl, drummer Olavi Louhivuori and pianist Alexi Tuomarila. Violinist Keisuke Ohta and guitarist Tsuneo Imahori open on both nights, joined by pianist Masahiko Satoh on the Thursday.
