The Shannon Barnett Quartet was selected to record a full set of music at the WDR in Cologne for this year’s Jazzfest Berlin Online Edition. It turned out very nice and we had a great time playing. The video is available on the Arte concert website. Please check it out.

SCHMID's HUHN - small series
SCHMID’s HUHN will be playing five nights in a row at Club Subway, Cologne. The SJO\CGN small series starts on Wednesday September 16th and ends on Sunday September 20th. You can get tickets trough Eventim. We’ll be playing a totally new program and in the second set the fabulous FEARLESS TRIO (with Johannes Ludwig, Simon Nabatov and Fabian Arends) will present their music.
Duo Videos with Lars Duppler
Playing Duo has been a new thing during these difficult times in order to meet the social distancing rules. Lars Duppler and I used the chance to create new material. Here are some videos of us performing mainly icelandic traditional music.
DLF Radio Feature about PYJAMA
An one hour radio feature by Anja Buchmann about me and my new album PYJAMA was just released by the German radio station Deutschlandfunk. It’s really fun listening to (if I may say so myself). Some secrets about the compositions and the interior of my practice booth are also revealed. You con listen to it HERE.
Stefan Karl Schmid Oktett | PYJAMA
I’m very excited about my new project PYJAMA. It features wonderful musicians from the Cologne jazz scene I have played with in different contexts over the last years. Our first concert will be at the Loft in Cologne!
