Deeply rooted in the melodic, swinging jazz of the 1950s, drummer Snorre Kirk updates a soulful classic jazz sound with modern arrangements. He emerged in the 2000s, playing with Malene Mortensen and establishing long-lasting creative relationships with musicians like Magnus Hjorth, Lasse Mørck, Kristen Korb, Sidsel Storm, and Jan Harbeck. Kirk's debut album Blues Modernism (2012) found widespread acclaim and his follow-up Europa (2014) led to appearances at prestigious festivals in Europe and the United States. After two more albums with his Europa group, Drummer & Composer (2017) and Beat (2018), he set up a new quartet with tenor saxophonist Stephen Riley for his next albums, Tangerine Rhapsody (2019) and Going Up (2021). Kirk's seventh album as a leader, Top Dog, followed in 2022.
