The repertoire primarily consists of traditional jazz numbers with blues and folk roots from 1900s America, as well as their own compositions. 𝙉𝙤𝙢𝙖𝙙 𝘾𝙖𝙩𝙨 Nomad Cats delivers tight, swinging jazz with a burning love for tradition and a presence that is felt throughout the hall. With roots in the American ballrooms of the 30s, the band combines bubbling uptempo numbers and atmospheric ballads, where melodies and improvisations breathe freely.Jesper Løvdal's saxophone playing sends clear greetings to masters like Hawkins, Lockjaw and Griffin, Andreas Ugorskij sweats through his Django Reinhardt-inspired playing, while the band's swing, energy and joy of playing get both feet and smiles moving. Chalk the dancing shoes – Nomad Cats is on its way.
