FRIM has the great pleasure of hosting two versatile and intriguing duos: the Stockholm based young and promising The Me In You along with New York based veterans Ingrid Laubrock/Tom Rainey.
The Me In You
Like two contrasting beings bound to the same path, Rasmus Mannervik and Agnes Persson let their instruments meet in a discussion of the big and the small, the eternal and the fleeting, the intricate and the simple. These two instruments, which in a conventional context often find themselves in conflict, are here given the chance to embrace the possibilities in their similarities and differences.
Rasmus Mannervik is a Stockholm-based pianist whose playing is characterized by great sensitivity and spontaneity. His touch is soft and emotional, creating a personal touch to the music that is hard not to appreciate. In his latest project, Af Klint Trio, he has created compositions and improvisations inspired by some of Hilma af Klint’s most well-known works.
Agnes Persson är en ny spännande gitarrist på den svenska jazzscenen. Hennes debutalbum ”In Collaboration With Flowers” släpptes nu i maj 2021 på Havtorn Records och har fått ett mycket varmt mottagande. Skivan är en reflektion kring rörelse – en befriande dans, ett steg i hjärtats riktning eller en vajande vitsippa på en solig häll. Lyssnaren möts av såväl lekfull blues som sköra ballader och omtumlande blåsarrangemang. Agnes rör sig över gitarren med en rund och närvarande ton, som inte räds att låta energin flöda i mellanrummen.

Ingrid Laubrock is a saxophonist/composer based in Brooklyn since 2009. Laubrock is interested in exploring the borders between musical realms and creating multi-layered, dense and often evocative sound worlds. Laubrock has worked with Anthony Braxton, Mary Halvorson, Kris Davis, Tyshawn Sorey, Tim Berne, Muhal Richard Abrams and many others.
Percussionist Tom Rainey was born in Los Angeles, California in 1957. Since moving to New York City in 1979 he has performed at festivals and clubs throughout North America and Europe with a wide range of artists, including John Abercrombie, Ray Anderson, Tim Berne, Jane Ira Bloom, Ted Curson, Marc Ducret, George Gruntz, David Torn, Mark Helias, Fred Hersch, Andy Laster, Joe Lovano, Carmen McRae, Mike Nock, Simon Nabatov, New and Used, Matthias Schubert, Tom Varner, WDR Big Band, Ken Werner and Denny Zeitlin.
Rainey’s voluminous recording credits and the artistic caliber of the musicians he’s supported would easily place him on the A-list of drummers closely identified with the New York City modern creative jazz scene roughly from the late ’80s onward.
