Go and see a band like Jaga Jazzist a genre-crossing collective of Norwegian multi-instrumentalists who skyrocketed to fame in 2002 when the BBC named A Livingroom Hush jazz album of the year and you expect it to be big.

The list of collaborators included the likes of Nico Muhly and Sufjan Stevens but it was tonight’s show with Norwegian progressive jazz outfit Jaga Jazzist that seemed one of the best fits and likely to yield the greatest results.
