About Portable Infinity

Listed Under Music Events / Nights Out Events

Portable Infinity is a dynamic jazz quartet formed by Danish saxophonist Benjamin Koppel, one of Europe’s leading jazz artists. With nearly 60 solo albums and collaborations with legends like Joe Lovano, Kenny Werner, and Randy Brecker, Koppel brings his expansive musical vision to the group.

Joining him is the legendary bassist Scott Colley, renowned for his work with Herbie Hancock, John Scofield, and Carmen McRae. Colley’s mastery of the bass and composition adds depth and innovation to the band.

Swedish pianist Jacob Karlzon, a prominent heir to Esbjörn Svensson’s legacy, contributes his exceptional skill and creativity, having released several acclaimed albums with ACT and Warner.

Drummer Magnus Öström, known for his groundbreaking work with E.S.T. and collaborations with Pat Metheny and Benny Golson, completes the quartet. Together, these musicians create a fresh, exciting sound that pushes the boundaries of contemporary jazz.

Portable Infinity is part of the Traverse's £1 Ticket Project.
