about

String Zone is surely one of the most promising newcomer bands in the Norwegian music scene. Their name is program, as strings are required to join the band. String Zones concept is modern, melodic jazz – with strong influences from rock and other music genres. The compositions are exclusively made by the band members. Please check this recording out! You won’t regret it!

String Zone released their first CD in December 2001, at that time by the name NEJQ, and below are quotes from some jazz musicians and papers:

“A wonderful offering; get it and be ready to smile and dance around with these fantastic players.”
Budd Kopman, Cadence Magazin

“Good playing and great concept.” David Liebman

“You really have a nice band going.” Jamey Aebersold

“… swinging with guts and elegance in and around neck-braking solos. 5 stars” Dagbladet

“Delicious. 5 stars” Varden

“The album is recorded live in studio, and has an elegant and toying touch.” Stavanger Aftenblad

“Without any doubt, NEJQ holds the potential of an international breakthrough.” Aftenposten
