Pianist and trumpeter Stefan Sporsén is leaving Håkan Hellström's band. The pair have been touring together since 2000.
Sporséns has composed music for films, series and stage productions and participated on several records, including by José González and the band Soundtrack of our lives. The decision to leave comes after "a creative dialogue" and a willingness to take a break and spend more time with the family, he tells Kulturnyheterna. In the clip above you can see archive footage from the pair's decade-long collaboration.
