My name is Leon Røsten and I’m a Norwegian jazz pianist, guitarist, songwriter and composer. My main work is leading, performing and composing for my bands Leon Røsten Odyssey, Sonic Cycles, Swallows Nest and Røsten. My  goal is to express and share the music from within and hopefully emotionally touch the listener whilst also creating  an interesting experience.
