Udi Shlomo
Udi Shlomo
is a drummer, composer and arranger, born in Kibbutz Nahshon (Israel), with roots from Iraq, Poland, Old Czechoslovakia, who since 2010 has been living in Trondheim(Norway).

Shlomo first picked up the drumsticks at the age of 5, at the kibbutz's music room. At age 8 he began his formal music training at the Yadharif Conservatory - Regional Center for Arts, and continued to study music until he graduated from high school.

Later on he continued with his music studying at the "Rimon School of Jazz and Contemporary Music". After 10 years of successful career in Israel where he played with some of the country's lead musicians and international artists, Shlomo moved to Norway in 2010, where he started his own project. ​

The diverse background is being expressed in Shlomo's music, that combines Shlomo's original compositions, that are inspired by memories, pictures, stories and nature from his early life in the kibbutz, together with new arrangements of traditional Hebrew folk music, and colored by the experience of life in Norway – away from the root, in the diaspora. This blend of cultures creates what today is called "World Jazz". ​

Over the years Shlomo has played at venues such as: Pizzaexpress Jazz Club, Ankara Jazz Festival, Sibiu Jazz Festival, Oslo Jazz Festival, Trondheim Jazz Festival, Jerusalem Jazz Festival, Tel Aviv Jazz Festival, Usadba Jazz Festival, Blue Note Poznan, Delhi Jazz Festival, Jazz Dock, Jazzinec International Music Festival, Tangente Jazz+. ​
