Artist Biography

“Jazzagenturen” is a Stockholm based network of jazz musicians and bands, under the leadership of Pontus de Wolfe. Due to the lockdown during covid -19, Jazzagenturen turned into a record label/publisher and has so far released over 50 songs on Spotify.

Our first signing, Leo Lindberg Trio is one of Sweden’s most exciting new acts. We’ve started a journey together, converting popular Swedish songs from the last two centuries (Track #1 even dating back to 1790!) into jazz in order to be able to show the world our musical treasure and heritage. More recordings a.w.a. releases are on the way!
