The Norwegian/Swedish quintet Friends & Neighbors was formed in 2009 in Trondheim, Norway. Since their first record, "No Beat Policy" in 2011, they have released three more powerful albums, and established themselves as a force to be reckoned with on the Scandinavian jazz scene. The band is clearly defined by the five members strong individual voices as players and composers. Their long experience playing together gives the music a clear and distinct sound. Stretching from melodic ballads to hard swinging free-bop and powerful free jazz, they keep the collective sound intact, showing influences from a wide spectrum of jazz history. The band has been touring extensively for years, including concerts Europe, USA, Japan, New Zealand and Australia.

The quintets latest album "Whats Next?" on Clean Feed (2018) has received great critical praise, from both Norwegian and international press.
