Velkommen til slippfest på Loftet på Becco! When I Return har de seneste årene markert seg som et spennende og friskt pust på den norske jazzscenen. Septetten har spilt konserter i inn og utland og inviterer nå til å feire slipp av sin etterlengtede debutplate. «The Weight of Bloom» slippes på Jazzland Recordings 13. februar 2026 og When I Return tar med helt ferske vinyler og CDer for salg på releasekonserten. I When I Returns lille musikalske univers møter du sju søkende og lyttende musikere i rammer der deres musikalitet både utfoldes og utfordres. Musikken er åpen og pustende, og musikerne får frie tøyler til å utfolde seg innenfor melodiske rammer hvor stemmer flettes om hverandre. When I Return ledes av saxofonist Brede Sørum og trombonist Jørgen Bjelkerud. Sammen komponerer de musikken, som har et tydelig ungdommelig preg og baserer seg på den amerikanske jazztradisjonen, men som også legger vekt på en mer norsk tilnærming til å bruke instrumentenes ytterpunkter i tekstur og komposisjon, samspill og interaksjon. Bandets medlemmer er en travel og høyst aktuell gjeng innenfor Norges unge jazzmiljø. Musikerne utmerker seg som enkeltmusikere, samt i andre prosjekter som Schemes, Lightning Trio, Dafnie, og Trondheim Jazz Orchestra. Komposisjonene til Bjelkerud og Sørum blir til store smeltedigler hvor alle de ulike musikerne med sine bakgrunner og referanser forenes til noe nytt, friskt, og spennende: til When I Return. Etter konserten spiller DJ Audun Vinger passende musikk på vinyl! When I Return består av: Brede Sørum - Altsax Jørgen Bjelkerud - Trombone Ola Lømo Ellingsen - Trompet Åsne Fossmark - Tenorsax Sondre Moshagen - Piano Kertu Aer - Bass Steinar Heide Bø - Trommer Konsertstart kl. 20 CC: 250,- på Vipps i døra
