Reija Lang Trio is building on the alluring acoustic sound - combining influences from the Afro-American jazz legacy and the European chamber jazz wave. The delicate and rarely heard sound is created with an interesting instrumentation - vocals, guitar, double bass and violin.
The band members represent the ultimate Finnish musicianship in a very high artistic level combining roots from both jazz and classical music: Reija Lang, vocals * Petri Krzywacki, guitar * Mikko-Ville Luolajan-Mikkola, double bass and violin.

Reija Lang Trio will release a new album "Soundoscope" in March 2010. The album introduces emotionally embracing and fine-sounding interpretations e.g. some Monk, Mingus, Gillespie an Evans tunes. The repertoire also introduces some tunes written by Luolajan-Mikkola with Lang´s lyrics. The trio also proudly presents a tune "Pink Cloud On The Sky" written by the legendary double bass player Ron McClure - now the first time as a lyric and vocal version with Lang´s lyrics.
