Palle & S\u00f8rnes is a new acquaintance for many of us, but it is simply a duo of two excellent artists with long experience separately who have found it too good to collaborate. <\/p>\n\n
Paul Wagnberg, also known as “Palle Groove”, moved from Sweden to Norway in 1985. In addition to his own projects, he has played with a number of artists, but is probably best known as organist, bassist, singer and composer in the soul jazz group The Real Thing. Palle is backing Finnmarkingen’s Jan Arild S\u00f8rnes as a member of The Electric Band during Dark Season Blues this year, but in duo format, Palle plays “golden nuggets” from Sweden’s very best singer-songwriters in what he describes as “a bluesy-jazzy soulful sound”. In addition, he offers a number of his own songs from a solo album he is working on. Palle plays piano, Hammond B3 and guitar, while S\u00f8rnes provides the vocals.<\/p>\n\n
