Personal & adventurous project | Oslojazz 2024

Kjetil Mulelid is one of our most prominent pianists, and all of his various projects have received praise from both domestic and international sources. He has captivated audiences with outstanding performances, whether with his own trio, in a duo format with Siril Malmedal Hauge, or as part of the band Wako. With the new album Agoja, Mulelid has assembled an adventurous ensemble of top-notch musicians.

At the end of 2022, he gathered good friends and favorite musicians in the studio and embarked on an unpolished journey without a map. The result is music rich in texture, with a sense of wanderlust, featuring a personal combination of a melancholic outlook on life and a playful tribute to the upcoming generation. Parallel to the album process, Mulelid became a father for the first time, and Agoja was the first approximate word he heard from his son.

Now, the Agoja project is ready to take the stage with its premiere at the Oslo Jazz Festival. Mulelid has assembled a group of musicians from the absolute top shelf to embark on this playful musical journey.
