In 2006, the Danish journalist Ib Skovgaard emailed his friend T.U. in Seattle to recommend he stop
by the Seattle tavern The Tractor to see and hear the group Emil de Waal+ and meet the pianist
Søren Kjærgaard.
The ensuing friendship led to Kjaergaard's return to Seattle in 2007 to record together, using songlines T.U.
wrote for the occasion, with Johnny Sangster at Chroma Studios. A third trip brought the mixing and mastering,
in 2008 with Mell Dettmer at Aleph Studios. The resulting album, "Suddenly, Sound: 21 songlines for piano, drainpipe, etc.," was released March 9, 2009, in
Copenhagen, followed by a tour of Denmark.
Søren Kjærgaard returned to Seattle in January 2010 to record with T.U. for a second album, "Alphabet, Peaceful,
Diminished: 21 proposals from the towers of babble", scheduled to be released in September 2010, followed by another
tour of Denmark.
