About Thore Jederby

  • Thore Jederby (October 15, 1913, Stockholm - January 10, 1984, Stockholm) was a Swedish jazz double-bassist, record producer, and radio broadcaster. Jederby received formal training in music at the Royal Swedish Academy of Music and began playing jazz in the mid-1930s, playing with Arne Hülphers's band from 1934 to 1938 and then with Thore Ehrling's ensemble from 1938 through the end of World War II.
  • He also led his own group, the Swing Swingers, for studio recordings in the mid-1930s, and led smaller ensembles for recording sessions in the 1940s. Later in his life, Jederby became active in the capturing of the history of Swedish jazz; he was involved in reissues of early Swedish recordings, curated radio shows devoted to Swedish jazz, and participated in a national commission on the history of jazz in Sweden.
