Being the son of a skilled church organist and composer, I've been fortunate to have good music around me since I was born. I’ve played drums since the age of 8, and decided that I would educate myself and pursue a career in music when I finished upper secondary school as a music major at the age of 19. I’ve since studied at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague and the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki, and now work in a variety of projects, almost exclusively in jazz.

My current band, the Jacob Roved Quintet, is releasing its first album ‘Remembering Billy Strayhorn’ in August 2015.
