IMPULS TRIO er tre rutinerede traditionsfortolkere i et legende musikalsk fællesskab – og en impuls der på magisk vis opløser fortid, nutid og fremtid.

Med impulser fra spillemandsmusik, kontemporær folk og rock spiller de tre musikere kendte og ukendte perler fra den danske traditionsskat tilsat drone, sang og egne kompositioner. Eksplosivt, legende, lyrisk og råt. Tonen er umiskendelig dansk – udtrykket er nutidigt, kraftfuldt og iørefaldende.

IMPULS TRIO i gang med at forberede en fælles debutudgivelse, som udkommer i efteråret 2010.

IMPULS TRIO er:

Kristian Bugge (violin) – er en af Danmarks ypperste yngre fortolkere af den danske traditionelle balmusik. Han er uddannet på Folkemusiklinien ved Det Fynske Musikkonservatorium og modtog i 2004 DR P2’s Radium pris og i 2006 to Danish Music Awards som ”Årets danske debut" og "Årets danske folk instrumentalist”. De senere år har desuden medført forskellige crossover-projekter som fx det engelsk/finsk/danske band Baltic Crossing, det danske folkemusik big band Habadekuk og samarbejdet med den klassisk uddannede slagtøjspiller Ronni Kot Wenzell.

Jesper Vinther (harmonika) – er en af danmarks absolut bedste harmonikaspillere indenfor folkgenren. Med sine skubbende rytmer, frække akkorder og følsomme melodispil har han skabt sin helt egen lyd. Jesper er uddannet på Folkemusiklinien ved Det Fynske Musikkonservatorium og spiller desuden i bl.a. Baltinget og Phønix, hvor han har modtaget flere Danish Music Awards.

John Bæk (guitar, mandolin & sang) – musiker, sangskriver og komponist; bl.a. kendt som én af frontfigurerne i det legendariske folkband Kætter Kvartet, der var med til at sætte nye standarter for den danske folkscene i 1990’erne. Som musiker og komponist er han en kreativ sjæl med solidt håndværk, skæve ideer og alsidighed som varemærke. Som guitarist og mandolinspiller har han udviklet sin egen unikke folkstil, der bevæger sig et sted mellem det lyrisk og rock’n roll.

IMPULS TRIO is a band of three experienced interpreters of the Danish folk tradition – and an impulse that can magically dissolve the past, present and future.

IMPULS TRIO play contemporary folk music based on Danish fiddle music. Known and unknown musical gems from the Danish tradition – with drones, songs and own compositions. Playful, explosive, lyrical and raw. The sound is unmistakably Danish – the expression is modern, powerful and catchy. Impuls trio play for concert and dance.

Debut Album will be released in autumn 2010.

IMPULS TRIO are:

Kristian Bugge (violin) – is one of the finest young interpreters of the traditional Danish fiddle music. He was educated at the Department of Folk Music at the Carl Nielsen Academy of Music. In 2004 he received the Danish Broadcasting Corporation Radium Prize and in 2006 two Danish Music Awards: "Danish debut of the year" and ”best folk instrumentalist of the year”. Recent years have also led to various crossover projects such as the English/Finnish/Danish band Baltic Crossing, the Danish folk big band Habadekuk and cooperation with the classical percussionist Ronni Kot Wenzel.

Jesper Vinther (accordion) – is one of Denmark's best accordion players within the folk genre. With his pushing rhythms, cheeky chords and lyrical melody playing he has created his own sound. He was educated at the Department of Folk Music at the Carl Nielsen Academy of Music. He is also a member of the bands Baltinget and Phoenix and has received several Danish Music Awards.

John Bæk (guitar, mandolin & vocals) – musician, songwriter and composer, also known as one of the leading figures in the legendary folk band Kætter Kvartet, a band which helped set new standards in the Danish folk music scene in the 1990s. As a musician and composer he is a creative soul with solid workmanship, crooked ideas and versatility as a mark. As a guitarist and mandolin player, he has developed his own unique style, moving somewhere between the lyrical and rock and roll.
