Artist In Residence John Zorn was to bring 30 musicians from New York's improjazz scene to this year's Moldejazz. With such a number, it is no wonder that changes can occur along the way. This has now happened on the basis of maturities from Erik Friedlander and John Medeski.

Joda, det blir fotoworkshop i år også - nr. 10 i rekken!

Commissioned works from Natalie Sandtorv / Lars Horntveth / Erlend Mokkelbost, D’Sound’s original cast with Simone + guest vocalist Tony Momrelle and DJ Kemit, energetic The Core and beautiful tones from Selma French - all coming to Moldejazz in week 29!

In addition, today we put out tickets for the drug-free concert for those under 18 to 06 Boys in Alexandraparken 19 July at 18:00.

In 2021, they sold out the Saturday before the festival started at record speed, and it is a pleasure to bring them back without having a seated audience and restrictions!

On Tuesday 19 July, they will play at 21:00, before Cory Wong feat. Dave Koz at 23:00. In other words, it's time for a fantastic concert night in Alexandraparken, where both concerts are included in the same ticket.

In addition, 06 Boys will play at. 18:00 the same day and place, as a drug-free event with a free age limit. With this, Moldejazz is more accessible for those under 18, with a concert in an arena they usually do not have access to in the evening.

NB! Tickets for the concert at 18:00 will be put up for sale in a separate release.

Silje Nergaard with Espen Berg plays Silje's music in stripped down and beautiful version, Blåsemafian returns to Alexandraparken with warning of high pressure, Cory Wong feat Dave Koz number two, GiddyGang & Vujo serves heavy hip hop beats and silky soft vocals, and a tribute to Delbert McClinton!

Morgengrykonserten i Reknesparken har blitt en tradisjon, både for Moldejazz, og mang en morgenfugl. I år er det Harpreet Bansal Band som skal spille i de vakre omgivelsene på utescenen i Reknesparken kl. 07:00 fredag 22. juli.

Gov't Mule is fronted by guitarist and vocalist Warren Hayes from The Allman Brothers. There will be high quality blues rock the audience will experience this evening, the band is known as one of the world's leaders in the genre. This is a booking that fits nicely into the series of proud festival moments with Muddy Waters (1977), BB King (1985 and 2001), Buddy Guy (1986), Gary Clark jr (2012) and Taj Mahall (2017), only to mention a few.

John McLaughlin & The 4th Dimension, Röyksopp, Chris Holsten, Cory Wong, Tord Gustavsen Trio, Christian Sands Trio and Emmeluth’s Amoeba are Moldejazz ready

Festival is people. Made by, for and about people. Every Sunday between 6 February and 27 March, a new episode of a seven-part documentary series with the theme Moldejazz will be released, made as short films from last year's festival.

Here you can see the 8 episodes in the documentary series about Moldejazz 2021, as they are published every Sunday from 6/2 to 27/3.

All episodes are published every Sunday at 10:00

Årets unge jazzmusikere 2022 skal kåres, og åtte unge, lovende band er plukket ut til å spille om tittel og stipend på noen av landets ledende jazzfestivaler det kommende halvåret. Under finalen på Moldejazz i juli vil ett av bandene kåres til Årets unge jazzmusikere 2022, og motta lanseringspakke fra Norsk jazzforum, mentorprogram støttet av Talent Norge samt Gramo-stipendet på kr 150 000.

Moldejazz has appointed former festival director Hans-Olav Solli as head of the festival's program committee, with responsibility for completing this year's program. Producer Cecilie Nogva becomes acting Festival Director.

These organizational adjustments will apply in Festival Director Mariann Bjørnelv's sick leave.
