About Me


Available on ITUNES!!!
Thanks for stopping by, back in London and looking forward to playing as much as possible. Also my new record is out. Here's a few quotes:
"When I heard Jasper's music I felt the simplicity that is most important as well as the challenging moments. Jasper is on his way to being a great bandleader as he is already a good composer and bassist. I know I'm going to keep listening. [Avishai Cohen]
"..his library of trio compositions create a coherent whole, with a subtle, yet invigorating mood..Høiby’s instrumental abilities easily match his compositional flair." [John L Walters – The Gurdian]
"..well named, it contains eleven pieces of fiercely interactive, often climatic music growing growing naturally from the considerable individual strenghts of its three participants." [Chris Parker, Vortex]
"I thought it was absolutely superb; just the first couple of bars knocked me out." [Chris Hodgkins of Jazz Services]
"The material comprises entirely of Hoiby originals and reveals him to be an excellent writer with an unfailing ear for a good tune." [Iann Mann, www24dash.com]
Have a listen to the music and check my website for more info..
Love Jasper
