Jon Fält (born 28 August 1979 in Gävle, Sweden) is a Swedish drummer in modern jazz.

Biography

Fält was raised in Sandviken and had first music lessons with Stefan Bergkvist at the Kulturskolan. From 1990 he played in the Sandvik Small Band at the school with which he first recorded in 1994. He attended the Jazzgymnasium in Gävle and the Kungliga Musikhögskolan in Stockholm. In the following years he worked with Alberto Pinton, Bobo Stenson (to be heard on his ECM albums Cantando, 2007 and Indicum, 2011), with Lina Nyberg (Tellus, 2006) and Jon Vanderlander, in the ensemble The Stoner led by the saxophonist Nils Berg, further in the bands The Deciders, Splint!, Yun Kan 5 (with Fredrik Ljungkvist) and in Trondheim Jazz Orchestra. In 2007, Fält received the Alice Babs Jazzstipend.[1] He was involved in 20 jazz recording sessions between 1994 and 2012, including with Palle Danielsson, Fredrick Nordstrom and Anders Jormin.[2] In a review on Nordic Music on the Jormin album Ad Lucem states: "Jon Fält is not a drummer in the traditional sense, he creates sounds and fills, creates space by not playing, grooving but still - factually cool, of course.“[3]
