On his new album, Evolver, Råberg returns to a large ensemble format for the first time in 22 years, this time expanding the band by one to create a remarkable tentet. As the title suggests, the brilliant results are a clear indication of how far Råberg has journeyed and how he takes personal evolution as a mission core to his musical vision. Due out June 1, 2024 via Råberg’s own Orbis Music Records imprint, Evolver features a stellar ten-piece band along with special guest appearances by Grammy-winning pianist Kris Davis and acclaimed and Blue Note recording artist saxophonist Walter Smith III.

★★★★ "Evolver presents Bruno Raberg's finest hour on record. Hearing the bassist and composer back in an almost big band setting—presenting music that is perfectly arranged and played, and remarkably beautiful—is a special treat.” – Dan McClenaghan, All About Jazz
