JOAKIM ÅHLUND & JOCKUM NORDSTRÖM BAND

Joakim Åhlund & Jockum Nordström met around 1998 when Joakim asked Jockum to create the cover for his band Caesars Palace’s first album. The music on the album can be described as eclectic or sprawling with elements of everything from jazz and free jazz to heated Afro-funk and melancholic Swedish folk. Fuzz guitars are mixed with beautiful strings, jazzy piano sounds, funky drum beats and oriental meandering melodies from the visiting jazz prodigy.
