8 mands stort soulband kendt som “Danmarks ubestridte soulkonger”.
In the UK, one of the early fans of the band was none other than Craig Charles who has played the band’s previous singles from the EP called Do The Right Thing weekly on his BBC 6 Music and BBC Radio 2 shows. By his own admission, D/troit is Charles’ “favourite new band”, and that is certainly a stamp of approval from a man, who knows what’s what and what’s hot in soul, funk and r’n’b. Charles also broadcast a special 3-song BBC session and interview for “The Craig Charles Funk and Soul Show” in November 2016.
In 2016 D/troit won “Best New Band” at Scandinavian soul Music Awards in Stockholm for Do The Right Thing. The Song “Soul Thing” was licensed to a worldwide Heineken TV commercial and songs from the EP appears in numerous films and TV shows.
Johan Bylling Lang og Niclas Bardelebens kærlighedsprojekt til New Orleans feat. de bedste unge stjerner fra byen.
En drøm blev til virkelighed i foråret 2016, da Niclas Bardeleben og Johan Bylling Lang indspillede deres første album “A Little New Orleans Never Hurt Nobody” i New Orleans med nogle af de bedste unge stjerner fra “The Big Easy”.
Det blev startskuddet til et musikalsk udvekslings-projekt, der senest har budt på andet album i rækken sangerinden Sasha Masakowski fra New Orleans. Projektet har udgivet har to albums. Repertoiret består af nye versioner af klassikere fra jazzens sangskat samt nye originale kompositioner af bandet medlemmer.
Danmarks bedste ska/reggae/soul band siden 2004.
In a world of fast food music and short expiration dates, Babylove and the van Dangos are hellbent on trying to claw their way through the white bread that fills the airwaves, and give an alternative to people who feel that it doesn’t quite fill their belly. Babylove & the van Dangos are here to play ska and they don’t intend on leaving the stage without being dragged off stage, kicking and screaming.
Since Babylove & the van Dangos first set sail from the salty docks of Copenhagen in 2004, they’ve managed to place them selves among the top acts of the ska scene. Their music has brought them all over Europe and as far away as the land of the rising sun. They’ve played over 700 concerts ranging from some of the biggest festivals in Europe to stages not quite suitable for a seven piece band. They’ve released six studio albums and appeared on numerous compilations.
Niels Jørgen Steens legendarisk Big Band.
MNBB ledes – på 24. år – af utrættelige, nu 84-årige, Niels Jørgen Steen. Repertoiret domineres af swing og bebop (Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, Duke Ellington, Count Basie m.fl.), arrangeret af kapelmester Steen og tilført hans suveræne greb om bigbandtraditionen.
Gasolins klassikere i svedige funky New Orleans versioner med Michael Carøe i front.
Carøe selv blev ramt af New Orleans for første gang for ti år siden. Det vækkede noget til live der havde ligget gemt dybt inde, helt tilbage fra dengang han var en knægt.
”Gasolin’ var det første musik der rørte mig. De tre første albums ændrede mit liv. Pludselig begyndte jeg at ane, hvad jeg ville her i livet. Jeg var ikke klar over hvordan, jeg skulle komme derhen, men jeg ville være i stand til at give andre den der følelse, jeg fik, når jeg hørte Gasolin’s sange.”
