Jens Christian Bugge Wesseltoft (born 1 February 1964) is a Norwegian jazz musician, pianist, composer and producer, son of the jazz guitarist Erik Wesseltoft.
Career
Wesseltoft was born in Porsgrunn. After high school in Skien, where he was involved in the school brass band and dance orchestras, he became a professional musician in 1983 only 19 years old. By the age of 16, he joined a punk rock band, but the influence of the jazz guitarist father, stalked on him. After moving to his father in Oslo (1984), it was mostly music with roots in jazz that mattered, although he also worked as a back-up musician and producer for the pop and rock elite in Norway. He had originally intended to study music, but the gigs were too many, and therefore he never got any further formal musical education. Towards the end of the 1980s Bugge Wesseltoft was involved in a variety of pop, rock and jazz bands like the "U and Z", "Et Cetera" and most important the Oslo Groove Company, and he was recognised as a coming musical genius with a great talent for the piano. This led to collaborations within the Knut Riisnæs Quartet in 1989, and he was soon after contacted by Arild Andersen to join in on the commissioned work for Vossajazz - released on the album Sagn (1990) - and the follow up Arv (1993), and Jan Garbarek for his Molde Canticle (1990), a commission from the Moldejazz, released on the album I Took Up the Runes (1990).

Come on down to my street Where everybody looks so sweet Girls passing by so beautiful They’re walking down my street The boys are playing up now With leather jackets and cigarettes They know how it is to be young They’re fighting on my street We’re alive with the music In every heart and soul We don’t give up We fight for what we stand for That’s for sure Come on down to my street We’re everybody looks so sweet Emigrants and refugees Different colours different skin I’m proud to let you in You’re a part of my street now We’re alive with the music In every heart and soul We don’t give up We fight for what we stand for That’s for sure Come on down to my street Where everybody looks so sweet Come on down to my street Where everybody looks so sweet I’m proud to let you in You’re a part of my street now Come on down to my street
