This is another heavy Norwegian fusion quintet becoming Grand General after premiering as the Kenneth Kapstad Group at the Trondheim Jazzfest in 2010. In addition to Kapstad, the band comprises bassist Trond Frønes, a fellow member of the metal band Goat The Head, and contemporary jazz musicians like violinist Ola Kvernberg, pianist Erlend Slettevoll and guitarist Even Helte Hermansen known from the jazz rock band Bushman's Revenge and also a collaborator on the jazz metal album Blackjazz by Shining among other collaborations.[2] They released their debut self-titled album Grand General in February 2013, consisting of six tracks which could be interpreted as a modern, clearer and more metal approach on music made by Steve Morse of Dixie Dregs or Mahavishnu Orchestra for example.[2][3]
