TWO OF A KIND

This dynamic jazz duo has a fascinating history and an irresistible charm that is guaranteed to brighten any event.

 

Two of a Kinds journey began in the summer of 2017 when the pianist Mats Skimmelå, newly moved to Mariestad, met the singer Emma Sjögren. It quickly became apparent that they shared a deep love for jazz music, but it would take a few years before they could realize their shared dream. In 2021, they decided to combine their musical bags and create a duo that would conquer the jazz scene.

Mats, who has his roots in Värmland's magical forests, is inspired by the stillness and power of nature. His musical prowess is refined through studies at the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston.

 

Emma, ​​with her roots in the Swedish musical tradition from Nässjö, has a strong background in singing and music, with a particular fondness for jazz which she developed during her time at a folk high school in Norway.

When Emma & Mats perform together, a unique symbiosis is created where song and piano merge into a magical whole. Their music is more than just notes and chords – it's a journey through the emotional landscape of jazz, where every performance is as personal as it is professional.
