Denmark's leading outlet for jazz April Records presents their first debut of 2025 from a brand new quintet of some of the country's most well known and respected young musicians - collectively called Oh People. Inspired by the works of Duke Ellington in the 20's and combining them with sounds that came to life over half a Century later with a palpable sense of joy and love. Exploring the idioms and tropes of the golden age of jazz, the record is built from deep pocket swing, lovesick ballads, percolating latin grooves, and upbeat melodies that can't help but bring a smile to one's face. With undertones of contentment and playfulness, each song evokes a sound and style of some of the 20th's Century's greatest jazz composers before evolving into passages of animated improvisation from Denmark's finest new-generation soloists. Anyone who has been keeping up to date with Denmark's prolific scene will recognize the members of 'Oh People' from their solo projects and contributions to many of the nation's leading jazz innovations. Jonas Due's trumpet can be heard in the DR Big Band, and popular modern outfit OTOOTO. Andreas Toftemark cut his teeth working and learning as a musician in New York, before returning to Denmark to establish himself with two releases under his own name, receive the prestigious Bent Jaedig Prize, and become one of the country's busiest artists. Casper Christensen's deep roots in the jazz tradition and Brazilian, coupled with the warm, acoustic sound of his guitar have seen him perform with the likes of Nana Rashid, Jesper Lodval and his own quartet. Lasse Morck has released three albums under his own name, drawing on South American musical traditions as well as literature and mythology. Henrik Holst has spent over a decade contributing his talents to Danish outfits like the Kathrine Windfeld Big Band and Jeppe Zacho Quintet, as well as international jazz legends Mike Stern, Gilad Hekselman and Immanuel Wilkins. Line-up: Andreas Toftemark: Saxophone Jonas Due: Trumpet & Flugelhorn Casper Christensen: Guitar Lasse Morck: Double Bass Henrik Holst Hansen
