PUMA

As relentless as the predator and as hip as the brand of sneakers: Puma creates intense, adventurous improvised music that is typical for the Norwegian scene. Right now, eccentric Norwegian acts mixing jazz, noise and electronics are making names in the international underground. Supersilent for example, or the Scorch Trio, who will perform at Bimhuis later this month, paved the way for young rebels like Puma.
