Vocal jazz with inspiration from New Orleans and jazz from the first half of the 20th century

When Low-Fly Quintet released their debut album, 'Stop For A While' on Losen Records in October 2017, multiple Norwegian reviewers awarded 6 out of 6 eyes on the dice. They also achieved acclaim from jazz reviewers abroad. One of them being the renowned Jazz Magazine 'Down Beat» (US):
«(...) A modern take on a bluesy 30s sound (...) the group shows it's potential in appealing takes on vintage songs. (February issue 2018)
In October 2019 Low-Fly Quintet releases its second album 'Winter Love Song'
On this release, the quintet offers only original songs. They have developed their expression further, creating vivacious, elegant, raw and genuine original songs inspired by the vocal jazz of the first half of the 20th century. They tell stories about intimacy and distance, small moments and big impacts and even with their modern approach to the classical sound of traditional vocal jazz they bring you the distinct colours of one of jazz's finest periods.
The quintet's special line up with cello in addition to vocals and piano trio creates a very distinct expression that strikes, surprises and touches.
Following their debut album, the quintet has played multiple concerts and festivals. On this record it becomes clear that they have more stories to tell. With these songs Low-Fly Quintet will be just as good a company at home in the living room as they will be live in concert.
The title track 'Winter Love Song' is not a love song in praise of winter, but a love song in spite of winter and this is how this record also occasionally tells about trivial, sad or painful themes in a fun, beautiful and warm way.
