Latin Viking

Icelandic country boy Tómas R. Einarsson got hooked on rhythm in childhood, but couldn't imagine that anything so much fun could be a job. In his twenties passion finally took over and he threw himself head first into learning how to play jazz on the double bass. From there he moved on to the enticing rhythms of Havana. After decades on the road, Tómas returns to his weather-beaten birthplace, with a full Latin band and some hot rhythms of his own.
