about

Jazz pianist Ketil Bjørnstad, vocalist Anneli Drecker and writer Lars Saabye Christensen has used their friendship as a base when
creating the new jazz album “Between Hotels and Time”
The result is a timeless and divine album with 18 original songs.

The three exceptional Norwegian artists are masters in their fields. Coming together creatively in this release, really enhances their different strengths and complement each other.

The sore and raw poetry of Lars Saabye Christensen, sung and delivered by the beautiful voice of Anneli Drecker and accompaniment by the expressive piano tones of Ketil Bjørnstad.
The record consists of slow and atmospheric songs both blue, sore and heartfelt but also tasteful, nifty and rhythmic tunes like in songs like “The Pawn Shop Band” and “Theif”. The more dark and melancholic side of the album shines through in tracks like “The Finder” and “Serbelloni Memories”.
The musical landscape is at times dreamy and mellow, making the listener become almost nostalgic.

Anneli Drecker is known to most for being the singer in the electronic dream pop band “Bel Canto”. On this record, it´s a different kind of musical expression, with only clean piano as accompaniment.
Dreckers voice is full of contrast – sometimes light and airing, and sometimes grounded and warm. Like in the song “Name”, she has a pure and almost angelic voice while her voice is dark and supportive in songs like “Winter Drama”.
