Fílaskó Tríó

After a decade in Copenhagen, guitarist and composer Steinar Guðjónsson is back on the Icelandic jazz scene with his new project, Flíaskó Tríó. The trio brings together old friends and musical partners from his days at the FÍH Music School. Flíaskó Tríó's music is best decribed as jazz-funk, where groove, feel, and catchy melodies take the lead. The songs are written with the band in mind, leaving plenty of room for playfulness and improvisation. Joining Steinar are two of Iceland’s most active musicians— Magnús Tryggvason Eliassen on drums and Tómas Jónsson on keyboards — both known from the acclaimed band ADHD and a long list of other projects. Together they bring deep pocket, warmth, and the kind of chemistry that only years of playing together can create. The album was recorded at the legendary Icelandic studio Hljóðriti, on the studio's 50th anniversary year of 2025. The recording was supported financially by STEF´s recording fund in Iceland.
