Musik
Med ukonventionelt materiale for en saxofon/trommeduo spiller de ofte sæt, der bevæger sig fremad på en afslappet måde, selv om de er konfronterende i den måde, de udfordrer hinanden på.
Begge musikere har højt udviklede udvidede teknikker som et nøgleelement i deres lyd, men denne duo forbliver tro mod ideen om fri improvisation og bruger også stærke melodier og gentagne beats, der tager forskellige veje hver gang.
Ud over at spille duo har de spillet trio med en lang række partnere - Agnes Hvizdalek, Nick Stephens, Kaja Draksler, Barre Phillips og for det meste Pat Thomas, som de udgav deres andet album som trio med på Trost efteråret 2024.

ENGLISH
John Butcher & Ståle Liavik Solberg
After a first duo meeting at Café Oto in 2015 that resulted in their record «So beautiful, it starts to rain» (Clean Feed) Butcher and Solberg have been playing as a duo through several tours in Scandinavia and England. Using unconventional material for a sax/drums duo they tend to play sets that move forward in a relaxed way, although they are confrontational in the way they challenge each other.
Both musicians have highly developed extended techniques as a key element of their sound, but this duo stays true to the idea of free improvisation and also uses strong melodies and repetetive beats, taking different paths each time.
As well as playing duo, they have played trios with a wide range of partners - Agnes Hvizdalek, Nick Stephens, Kaja Draksler, Barre Phillips and mostly Pat Thomas with whom they've released their second album as a trio on Trost in the autumn of 2024.
