Hedwig Mollestad Thomassen is a guitarist, composer, and improviser from Norway. The Hedveg Mollestad Trio has been releasing jazz-rock albums since 2013's All of Them Witches and 2016's Black Stabat Mater, with a sound equal parts electric jazz and hard rock. They're influenced by Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin, and the avant-electric jazz of Sonny Sharrock and James Blood Ulmer. 2019's Smells Funny was recorded live in studio. A year later, Ekhidna showcased Mollestad leading a quintet that included Portuguese trumpeter Susana Santos Silva and Elephant9 drummer Torstein Lofthus. In 2021, the Hedveg Mollestad Trio celebrated its tenth anniversary with the release of Ding Dong. You're Dead, and followed in November with Tempest Revisited, a studio recording inspired by her performance of Arne Nordheim's ballet suite Tempest. A year later she teamed with the Trondheim Jazz Orchestra to release Maternity Beat; the trio followed with 2025's Bees in the Bonnet.
