https://glivelab.fi/tampere/events/marquis-hill-composers-collective-us-671770f8a210495f87f49913/
Marquis Hill, a trumpeter from Chicago, is at the forefront of the international jazz scene.

Kimmo Pohjonen (accordion) and Eric Echampard (drums) joined forces already in 2000 with the goal to make totally improvised music, live on stage with no rehearsals. They have succeeded in their aim to ride the edge of melody, counterpoint, energy and tension as proven by the enthusiastic audiences at each performance, as well as by the satisfaction and exhilaration of the two players.
12.3. Emma Rawicz Quartet (UK) / Better Live -concert
https://glivelab.fi/tampere/events/emma-rawicz-quartet-uk-6718eb355948352813edbc17/
Multi-award-winning British saxophonist and composer Emma Rawicz emerged on the international stage to critical acclaim with her first release on the prestigious ACT label at the age of just 21.

https://glivelab.fi/tampere/events/jimi-tenor-band-6717a793a210495f87f5729f/
Jimi Tenor is a pioneer of Finnish weirdness, which in his music smoothly jumps from experimental rock and jazz all the way to psychedelic soul and funk. Tenor already made a career in the 1980s with the band Jimi Tenor & His Shamans but rose to worldwide cult popularity in the following decade also as a solo artist.
20.3. Nikki Hill
https://glivelab.fi/tampere/events/nikki-hill-us-6717af69a210495f87f5927f/
Nikki Hill is sweet seduction, sweeter threat, and smoldering energy. An original force in American music, she is tender and tough, flamboyant, witty and dangerous. To put it plainly, Hill brings daggers back to the stage and studio. Overlapping soulful, sensual and bold vocal tones with powerful chrome-plated riffs and swagger, her voice finds a home in it - a soul singing, bar rocking, roots revivalist, that writes with frank self-reflection at a dancing tempo.
2.4. Frigg
https://glivelab.fi/tampere/events/frigg-25-vuotisjuhlakonsertti-66e3f6d9d2c17cdf8db14572/
