Throughout the last decade Baby In Vain have proved to be one of the strongest names on the Danish rock scene.
The Copenhagen trio made up of Lola Hammerich, Andrea Thuesen Johansen and Benedicte Pierleoni-Nielsen emerged in 2013 with a string of hard hitting singles, blowing away critics and audiences in Denmark and beyond.
In 2017 their debut album ‘More Nothing’ produced by Rob Ellis (PJ Harvey, Marianne Faithfull) was released, drawing inspiration from ‘90s noise and stoner rock.
On Baby In Vain’s latest album ‘See Through’ from 2020, produced by Nis Bysted (Iceage), the untamed energy of their earlier work evolved into a melancholic and dreamy sound, a new and more mature version of Baby In Vain.
The follow up to ‘See Through’ is expected in 2023.

𝙇𝙇𝘼𝙆𝙄 𝙏𝙍𝙄𝙊

A substantial punk-jazz trio from the Baltics - LLAKI. Formed by three friends, sharing a long-time musicianship and hardships of eastern-european life. They play music that unfolds in heavy rhythms, heartwarming melodies, mesmerising sounds and outbursts of dynamic energy. With inspirations from different folklore and the present-day realms, they knit together archaic and contemporary elements into a soundscape that immerses into a hypnotic space with brief voyages to different parts of the world.

Therese Aune creates experimental pop music centered around her voice and the synthesizer, sometimes accompanied by field recordings or small string instruments. Her expression can be dreamy and evocative or direct and vulnerable, and is characterized by warm sounds and unconventional melodies. Lyrically her songs deal with the opposite needs of belonging and solitude - wanting to be autonomous, but also being dependent on others. Besides the work on her solo project, Aune makes music for art installations, podcasts and films.

JIM is a trio of three exciting newcomers to the European jazz scene: Ivar Asheim from Norway on drums (Trond Kallevåg Hansen, Andreas Røysum, Billy Meier), German saxophonist Jon Sensmeier (ALIGAGA, Young Immigrants) and bassist Martin Brunbjerg Rasmussen from Denmark (Little North). Together they take the listener on a playful journey as they explore the slim saxophone trio format. With a conscious eye for the format's rich heritage, the trio speaks freely with both modern and traditional tongues, from abstract textures to heavy swing. Their joyful and generous music moves effortlessly between compositional and improvisational ideas, as if floating from island to island.

Mere om kunstnere:

𝙏𝙃𝙀𝙍𝙀𝙎𝙀 𝘼𝙐𝙉𝙀

Therese Aune skaber eksperimenterende popmusik centreret omkring stemmen og synthesizeren, nogle gange akkompagneret af field recordings eller små strengeinstrumenter. Hendes udtryk kan være drømmende og stemningsfuldt eller direkte og sårbart, og er præget af varme lyde og utraditionelle melodier. Tekstmæssigt beskæftiger hendes sange sig med de kontrasterende behov tilhørighed og ensomhed - at være selvstændig, men også være afhængig af andre. Udover arbejdet med sit soloprojekt laver Aune musik til kunstinstallationer, podcasts og film.

Gennem det seneste årti har Baby In Vain markeret sig som et af de stærkeste navne på den danske rockscene.
Det københavnske trekløver bestående af Lola Hammerich, Andrea Thuesen Johansen og Benedicte Pierleoni-Nielsen debuterede i 2013 med en række hårdtslående singler, der blæste anmeldere og publikum bagover i ind- og udland.
I 2017 landende debutalbummet ‘More Nothing’, produceret af Rob Ellis (PJ Harvey, Marianne Faithfull), som med inspiration fra 90’ernes støj- og stonerrock blandt andet førte bandet forbi Roskilde Festival og vakte international interesse.
På trioens seneste album fra 2020 ‘See Through’, produceret af Nis Bysted (Iceage, m.fl.), var den støjende rock tildels lagt på hylden til fordel for en mere melankolsk og drømmende lyd, som varslede en ny, og mere moden udgave af Baby In Vain.
Opfølgeren til ‘See Through’ forventes i 2023.

𝙇𝙇𝘼𝙆𝙄 𝙏𝙍𝙄𝙊

En betydningsfuld punk-jazz-trio fra Baltikum - LLAKI. Stiftet af tre venner der deler
et mangeårigt musikerskab og strabadser i det østeuropæiske liv. De spiller musik
der udfolder sig i tunge rytmer, hjertevarme melodier, hypnotiserende lyde og
udbrud af dynamisk energi. Med inspiration fra folklore og nutiden,
smelter deres musik sammen i både et arkaisk og nutidigt lydbillede der tager lytteren med ind i et hypnotisk rum med kortvarige rejser til forskellige dele af verden.

JIM er en trio sammensat af tre spændende newcomers på den europæiske jazzscene: Ivar Asheim fra Norge på trommer (Trond Kallevåg Hansen, Andreas Røysum, Billy Meier), den tyske saxofonist Jon Sensmeier (ALIGAGA, Young Immigrants) og bassisten Martin Brunbjerg Rasmussen fra Danmark (Little North). Sammen tager de lytterne med på en legende rejse, når de udforsker det sparsomme saxofontrioformat. Med et bevidst øje for formatets rige arv, taler trioen frit med både moderne og traditionelle tunger, fra abstrakte teksturer til det tungt svingende. Deres glædesfyldte og generøse musik, bevæger sig ubesværet mellem kompositoriske og improvisatoriske ideer, som om de svæver fra ø til ø.
