MUSICMUSICMUSIC（MMM）由三位杰出的音乐家组成，于2003年成立于瑞典西海岸的哥德堡，他们的演出被认为是近年来瑞典爵士乐坛最具活力的音乐体验之一。乐队精巧演绎的古典爵士原创曲目均出自主创兼钢琴手Fabian Kallerdahl之手，他同时也是2006年Jazz in Sweden（Jazz i Sverige）奖获得者。MMM对实验充满热情，演奏过程中永远带着愉悦，他们拒绝墨守成规的态度、幽默的表达和令人陶醉的现场为他们赢得了广泛好评，也吸引了大量传统爵士之外的乐迷。



过去的十几年中，乐队的巡演行程覆盖了整个北欧，也在南非、日本、泰国、墨西哥和美国进行了演出。

2004年，乐队的首张专辑《One Two Free》在瑞典一经推出便受到了评论界与乐迷的一致好评;2005年，乐队的第二张专辑《What’s A Good Boss Anyway?》被瑞典第二大报纸《每日新闻》评为年度最佳爵士专辑；2006年，乐队为挪威卑尔根国家场景剧院（Den Nationale Scene）的新编莎士比亚名剧《麦克白（Macbeth）》创作主题音乐，并收录于他们的第三张专辑；2008年，乐队在2月推出了他们的第四张专辑《Everybody digs》，并在北欧地区展开大规模巡演，同年夏天参演纽约罗切斯特国际爵士音乐节（Rochester International Jazz Festival）。



2010年，乐队与Lina Nyberg合作录制了对Leonard Bernstein的名作《West Side Story》进行的全新演绎, 并共同进行了一次大规模巡演—这也是乐队迄今为止最重大的突破之一；2011年到2012年间，Fabian荣获瑞典国家广播电台2011年度最佳爵士音乐家提名；乐队与格鲁吉亚爵士/融合/民谣乐团Egari、瑞典流行歌手Nina Natri和爵士明星Nils Berg合作，进行了一系列富有趣味而极具挑战性的音乐项目；

2013年到2014年间，乐队在瑞典、德国、墨西哥成功举行巡演，墨西哥的美妙经历为他们带来灵感，催生了第七张专辑《Buen Sabor》；2014年12月，瑞典著名独立厂牌Hoob Records为庆祝厂牌成立十周年举办了一场盛大的音乐节，MMM参与策划，并作为主打乐队参演。

经过12年的音乐旅程，MMM已经成为瑞典爵士乐坛的一股中坚力量。他们将不会停止探索的脚步，继续开拓爵士乐的疆界，并把对音乐的热爱通过舞台传达给世界各地的乐迷。

“A stunningly fresh and cutting edge, mix witha standard twist.” “This music is alive.”

——Ulf Johansson, Gothenburg Post

“...An hour of spiritual jazz music in a classical trio setting. Brilliant, coherentand intelligent.” “Best jazz-CD of the year.”

——Ingrid Strömblad, Svenska Dagbladet 

“MUSICMUSICMUSIC are innovative, inspirational and unique. They could have veered toward sself-indulgence on so many songs - they certainly have the talent to pull itoff – but their musical integrity is too great.”

——Daily News, Durban, South Africa“Young,hip, tight jazz from Gothenburg” “Forget about trios stuck in hazy and introverted intimate jazz, this band is a compact unit full of rhythmical accuracy, impulsive melodies and a Charlie Parker portion of humour.” “It’s just right!” “The sense of style reaches out, from Gothenburg to the world.”

——Tobias Brandt, La Musik, Swedish National Radio

“Personality is the key word here:  Kallerdahl has buckets of it. He’s an engaging presence with a ready, zany wit.” “With funky fluidity and brilliant melodic reappraisal, Like Someone in Love and What a Wonderful World emerged completely refreshed as deeply personal statements.”

——RobAdams, Edinburgh



Three extraordinary jazz musicians make up MUSICMUSICMUSIC. In their native Sweden the trio has been hailed one of the most vitalizing music experiences to hit the jazz scene in years. With a passion for experimentation and an ever presentjoy in playing, the group skillfully takes on classical jazz compositions as well as original work by the group’s pianist Fabian Kallerdahl, who was rewarded with the Jazz in Sweden (Jazz i Sverige) award for 2006. The group has become widely acclaimed for their refreshing lack of respect, humoristic features and intimate live performances and has reached out to audiences far beyond the traditional borders of jazz music.

Inthe past years the band’s dedicated touring schedule has covered the Nordic countries and northern Europe. The trio has also set time aside to perform in both South Africa, Japan, Thailand, Mexico and the US.

When released in Sweden in 2004, their debut album “One Two Free” was an immediate success with both audiences and critics. Their second album “What’s A Good Boss Anyway?” was announced best jazz album of the year, 2005, by Sweden’s second biggest newspaper, Dagens Nyheter.



In 2006 the pianist Fabian Kallerdahl was awarded with the prestigious Jazz in Sweden award and the trio made the music for the play “Macbeth”, at the National Stage (Den Nationale Scene) in Bergen, Norway. This music was put onthe trio’s third album.

“EverybodyDigs” – MMM’s fourth album was released in February 2008 in conjunction with anextensive tour in the nordic countries. In the summer of 2008 MMM made asuccessful performance at Rochester International Jazz Festival, NY.

In2010 MMM started working together with Lina Nyberg and recorded their common interpretation of Leonard Bernstein’s “West Side Story”. This was one of thetrio’s biggest break-throughs so far and led to an extensive tour together with Nyberg.



In 2011-2012, Fabian Kallerdahl was nominated Best Jazz Musician of the Year 2011by the Swedish National Radio. MMM joined an interesting and challenging musical collaboration with Georgian jazz-fusion-folk-ensemble Egari, Swedishpop artist Nina Natri and Swedish jazz star Nils Berg.

In2013-2014 the trio made successful tours in Sweden, Germany, and Mexico. Their 7th album “Buen Sabor” was inspired by their Mexican adventures. In December 2014 Hoob Records celebrated 10 years with a big festival, arranged and headlined by the trio.

After12 years of groundbreaking music MMM has established the trio as something ofan institution in Swedish jazz and continues moving jazz ahead and celebrating their love to music on stages everywhere.
