Have you ever heard Icelandic jazz? It seems that jazz has spread everywhere! Despite its remoteness, the country is well-known for its flourishing and high-level musical life Björk and Sigur Rós lovers will agree on that. But aside from these international stars, ADHD certainly deserves more recognition, says Jef Levenson from Blue Note. The band brings one of the leading jazz-blues acts in Iceland. A pure moment of chemistry and magic: ADHD's melodic sound weaves the melancholy of the dark nordic winter with the unexpected expressiveness of Reykjavik's avant-garde scene. The band has release 4 albums so far: adhd1 (2009), adhd2 (2011), adhd3 and adhd4 (both in 2013) on the label Contemplate.
