Kjetil Mulelid

  • Collaboration with
    Norwegian Embassy

After extensively touring the world and releasing several critically acclaimed albums with his own trio, Wako ect, Kjetil is now relevant with his solo project.

His music is a series of beautiful and harmonious originals, which are carefully crafted intuitively through his spontaneous playing style rich in improvisation. With a desire to tell a story in each musical stanza, he treats each song like a blank canvas and paints with his melodies and a natural rhythmic flow in the playful game.

He has previously had two trio releases on Rune Grammofon, where his debut album “Not Nearly Enough to Buy a House” was released in late 2017, and the sequel came two years later. Mulelid’s music has been highly praised in magazines such as “The Wire”, “Jazzwise”, “International Piano Magazine”, and “The New York City Jazz Record”, and his trio was described by Jez Nelson on British radio Jazz FM as ” Best of the year “in 2017.

Mulelid has played concerts and frequently touring in Japan, the USA, and most of Europe, and he has played and worked/collaborated with many great musicians such as Arve Henriksen, Jason Moran, Barry Guy, Trygve Seim, Mats Eilertsen, Audun Kleive, Kirsti Huke, Ola Kvernberg, Eirik Hegdal, Sissel Vera Pettersen, Rob Waring, and Petter Vågan. Since 2015 he has been working as a freelance musician and a music educator.

He has also studied pedagogy studies and worked at highly respected music education schools. Former employers include NTNU Jazzlinja, Sund fhs., Trøndertun fhs., Trondheim Cathedral School and at Ole Vig High School.
