Performer Biography
Fifteen years after first meeting at a jam session in Copenhagen, Dreamers’ Circus have emerged as the pre-eminent international band in Nordic folk and traditional music. This talented trio crafts a sound defined by their virtuosic musical abilities across a diverse range of instruments that include fiddle, accordion, piano and cittern.
Drawing from their backgrounds in traditional and roots music, Dreamers’ Circus presents a genre-bending blend of folk sensitivity, jazz improvisation and classical complexity, all infused with influences from popular music. The result is a music that is resolutely contemporary but also rhythmically and melodically engrossing.
