Jazz vocalist Mariah Hortans and guitarist Mathias Sandberg have played more than 600 concerts from Utsjoki in the north to Hanko in the south, and done two tours in the United States. Their music, which can be described as cool, intimate, traditional vocal jazz is performed completely live with just one voice and one guitar.

Mariah Hortans is a well respected singer, composer and educator. Jazz guitarist and composer Mathias Sandberg is one of the hardest working jazz musicians in Finland. He has studied at Manhattan School of Music in New York and Berklee College of Music in Boston, and worked with artists such as Georg Riedel, Pierre Swärd, Peter Asplund, Nick Mancini, Jukka Eskola, Teppo Mäkynen and Manuel Dunkel.

CHRISTMAS JAZZ
The Mariah Hortans / M Sandberg Duo album Christmas Jazz and their latest release Another Jazzy Christmas will definitely get you into the Christmas spirit in style. Classical Christmas compositions by Sibelius, Händel and Schubert are interwoven with traditional Christmas carols, songs and hymns. The songs are sung in English, Finnish and Swedish, and have been rearranged and harmonized with the jazzy harmonies, swinging rhythms and melodic improvisation the duo has become known for.

2021 CHRISTMAS JAZZ TOUR
In November-December Mariah Hortans / M Sandberg Duo embarks on a 31-date Christmas Jazz tour all over the country.
