Hard swingin’, groovy and soulful jazz! He has been called “one of Finland’s best kept secrets” – the highly acclaimed guitarist and composer Mathias Sandberg is one of the hardest working jazz musicians in the country.

He studied at the Manhattan School of Music in New York and Berklee College of Music in Boston, and has worked with artists such as Georg Riedel, Brian Charette, Nick Mancini, Peter Asplund, Jukka Eskola, Teppo Mäkynen, and Manuel Dunkel.

Sandberg plays around a hundred concerts a year and has toured both Europe and the United States. His debut solo album The Doctor (2020) and the highly anticipated follow-up The Captain (2023) have received rave reviews and airplay on jazz radio stations across Europe, the US, South America, Asia, and Australia.

The albums showcase his unique blend of hard-swingin’, groovy and soulful jazz, with strong melodic writing, rhythmically playful improvisation, and a delightful, almost telepathic interplay between the trio.
