"Mit Tonbruket setzt Dan Berglund den Weg exakt dort fort, wo der Stern von e.s.t. verglühte." JAZZTHING
Bassist Dan Berglund became world famous as a member of e.s.t. The trio, with Esbjörn Svensson on piano and Magnus Öström on drums, was, as declared by The Times (UK), the most successful and probably the most influential jazz band of the past decade. As an artistic unit of three very different but equally participating musicians, their unique sound defined our current perception of jazz, particularly in Europe. While the piano represented the classic jazz influences, Berglund’s bass work led to him earning a reputation as the “rock ‘n’ roller of the trio”. Svensson’s tragic death in an accident in June 2008 forced Berglund to re-orientate himself; he played with many old friends from his time before e.s.t. and out of these sessions, a new band slowly crystallised: Tonbruket.‘Tonbruket’ is the Swedish word for the big workshops which “...
