Woodhouse (DK)

Woodhouse sounds like a great band that mixes different musical styles in new and exciting ways. Their blend of beat jazz, hip hop, R&B, and neo soul creates a unique sound that is both energetic and groovy. It must be an intense musical experience, especially considering the way the band integrates pulsating rhythms and energetic beats that make the listener move along with the music.

Winning the Jazz6000 Audience Award 2022 shows that their music resonates with fans and audiences alike. The mesmerizing odd-time hip-hop fusion, Balkan-inspired saxophone sounds, powerful bass lines, and dreamy keys sound like a fantastic mix that creates a very special atmosphere. Their approach to modern Danish jazz seems to be a fresh and energetic addition that pushes the boundaries of what jazz can be.

Have you had a chance to see them live, or are you planning to? It sounds like it could be a concert filled with both groove and a good dose of rhythmic behavior!

Behind the music is the talented drummer Christoffer Skovhus, whose compositions draw on the rising British wave of modern jazz as well as the music he encountered while studying at conservatories in Finland, Sweden, and Denmark. The band has been playing together since 2021 and released a debut EP in 2024.
