SH Group is a jazz quintet based in Brussels, Belgium. It has focused on the production of beautiful and simple music that draws its inspiration from various genres such as rock, jazz and pop. The band emphasizes the vibration of sounds and the attitude displayed during performance. The objective is to create a feeling of openness, sharing and community, free from intellectualism or rigid traditions.

SH group is made up of a group of friends passionate about playing music together.

In the spring of 2019, SH Group had the opportunity to highlight its talents when it played as an opening band to the Pierre Durand « Roots » Quartet during a regional tour in Burgundy Franche-Comté, France. Since then, the group has played regularly in France, Belgium and beyond.

The first recording, “SH Group EP”, was released on March 12, 2020. SH Group includes Vlad Tolordava with the trumpet, Jonas Le Roy on saxophone, Matteo Di Leonardo on guitar, Niklas von Werne on drums and Sébastien Hugue on the double bass and he provides the compositions.

The group recorded an album in April 2024 featuring Pierre-Antoine Savoyat on trumpet and the Iguaran String Quartet. Album released on 02/20/2026.

Born from a desire for artistic growth and affirmation, this seven-track record explores emotions and life moments that leave a lasting mark. Balancing embraced vulnerability with a sense of playfulness, SH Group brings a vivid poetic touch to a style sometimes seen as overly technical, revealing its deeply human core.
