Girls in Airports (DK)

 

 

Girls in Airports is an unprecedented blend of world and indie jazz. It is music that describes a dynamic, open and globalized world viewed from a young mans dorm room in Copenhagen. ....

This is what the world’s leading jazz website, allaboutjazz.com concluded in their review of the album:....

Considering the young age of the band and the fact that this is its debut, the achievement of Girls in Airports becomes all the more remarkable. This is an album that can not only be rated among some of the finest new releases in Danish jazz, it is also a work that introduces a whole new sound, where mellow Nordic lyricism is combined with sounds from Africa and the East. Here tribal drums, funky beats, dub and ambient grooves coalesce into an idiosyncratic stew, and the result is a highly enjoyable offering that is as lyrically dazzling as it is rhythmically enchanting. ....

Our debut album won an award at the Danish Music Awards Show 2010 in the category 'best cross over jazz'.
