2024 has been amazing and crazy at the same time… 70 concerts in Brazil, Argentina, Japan, US, France, Poland, Germany, Ireland, Spain and Scandinavia with Palle, Marilyn, AC, Midori Takada, Jorge Rossy, Larry Grenadier, Craig Taborn, Arve Henriksen, Isaiah Collier, Denardo Coleman, Jesper Zeuthen, Jakob Høyer, Chris Cheek, Gregory Hutchinson, Chris Potter, Marcus Gilmore, Eric Harland, Joshua Redman as well as Charles Lloyd, Ambrose Akinmusire and Brian Blade!

We have recorded so much music this year… Live concerts, studio sessions in Japan and to be able to record with Palle Mikkelborg in Copenhagen as late as this week!!

Highlights include Village Vanguard, Big Ears Festival, C6 Fest, Pierre Boulez Saal, Flagey, Bimhuis, Bremen Teater, NFM Wroclaw, touring with “Strands” and Charles Lloyd Sky Trio… it was extra special performing with Dagny and the children harps in Copenhagen this summer ❤️

A lot of releases: “Taking Turns” is finally out on ECM Records after ten years. We made two short films with Lee Konitz and Palle Mikkelborg in conversation with Jørgen Leth, and I am super exited about restarting the label Loveland Music with “Sound Flower” and “Music For Black Pigeons Soundtrack” on LP and the “Balladeering” repress. I can promise we have a lot of new music in stock for you next year. Get it directly from the source at shop.jakobbro.com

PS: Andreas Koefoed’s and Jørgen Leth’s film Music For Black Pigeons is now out in the US and Europe – and it is coming to Japan in Spring! Can’t wait.
