WHERE YOU MIGHT HIDE
EMILIA MÅRTENSSON & MATT ROBINSON
NEW ALBUM, 2027
...Immensely subtle arrangements, exquisitely beautiful songs, and, at its centre, a voice of quite remarkable expressive depth.” —JAZZWISE ++++
“ …pianist Matt Robinson, showcased a remarkable talent for composition.” — UK Jazz News
Where You Might Hide is a voice–piano duo album by Emilia Mårtensson and Matt Robinson, shaped by a close musical partnership and a shared interest in space, clarity, and songcraft. Inspired by European jazz partnerships such as Sidsel Endresen & Bugge Wesseltoft and Norma Winstone & John Taylor, the duo gently expands the voice–piano format through improvisation, extended techniques, and subtle electronics, without losing the intimacy and clarity of the duo format. Based between London and Berlin, the project reflects a contemporary European sensibility grounded in presence listening and musical interaction.

WHERE YOU MIGHT HIDE — LIVE
At the heart of Where You Might Hide is the close musical dialogue between voice and piano. Live, the project can remain in its most intimate duo form or expand into a larger ensemble, bringing new colours and possibilities to the music while keeping the same sense of space, spontaneity and interaction at its centre.

“A voice of quite remarkable expressive depth” – JAZZWISE
Emilia Mårtensson is an award-winning vocalist and composer based between London and Berlin, originally from the southern countryside of Sweden. Known for her gently expressive tone and emotionally rich storytelling, Emilia has become one of the most distinctive voices on the UK jazz scene and received recognition from The Observer as ‘The new face of British jazz’ in 2012. Her music draws deeply from Scandinavian folk traditions while crossing boundaries between art-pop, jazz, and improvised music.
In 2016, she was named ‘Vocalist of the Year’ at the Parliamentary Jazz Awards, and has since performed on major international stages, including Rochester Jazz Festival (NY), Ljubljana Jazz Festival (SI), London Jazz Festival, and Umeå Jazz Festival (SE), among many others.
