Sebastian Strinning at the Sugar Maple in Milwaukee on October 11, 2024

Thirty-nine year old Sebastian Strinning is a saxophonist with roots in Switzerland and Sweden. He also has connections to Chicago, however, having been awarded a residency in the Windy City in 2017. Last year he further cemented his Chicago ties with a duo album with percussionist Tim Daisy.

In October he came to Milwaukee twice with different ensembles. For this first Cream City show, the band featured fellow saxophonist Keefe Jackson, bassist Jason Roebke, and drummer Julian Kirshner. There was quite a bit of spirited improvisation on offer over the 46-minute set.
