Monkey Plot (initiated in 2011) is a Norwegian jazz trio playing acoustic improvised music with their own touch.

They released their debut album Løv Og Lette Vimpler in 2013.

The album was recorded in Stavanger, in the studio of Norwegian free jazz pioneer Frode Gjerstad.

He has succeeded in capturing the simple, acoustic and intimate sound, of the trio and the free-spirited structure of its pieces, blending organic guitar improvisation with clear references to the ECM recordings of Ralph Towner.

The musicians exude confidence and have a distinct presence in the music that creates a strong sense of communication and interaction.
