Two Brass Players Fire Up the Jazz Kettles

Finn Odderskov is a self-taught musician who has played with a myriad of different bands over the years, ranging from traditional jazz to swing to more modern jazz.

As a freelance musician, Finn has worked for Danish Radio and TV, just as he has been a musician at theaters around the country.

As a sideman, he has played with musicians such as Charlie Shavers, Clark Terry, Roffe Ericson, Thad Jones, Leroy Jones, Phil Woods, Bud Freeman, Dexter Gordon, and Ben Webster.

Finn Odderskov received Gaffelprisen-award in 1983, Fatterprisen, Jazzpris Silkeborg in 2007, and the Ben Webster Honorary Award in 2019.

Finn is backed up by old acquaintances in the alley. Every day, Heine Hot puts together a team of experienced musicians, including Jens Nørholm, Peter Friis, Jesper Carlsen, and Søren Bo Addemos.

Rasmus Bøgelund has been on stage since he was nine years old. His first years were in the family band with his father, and since then he has played trumpet right behind some of the biggest Danish and international names.

Rasmus has appeared on countless releases, and apart from a gold record with Poul Krebs, he has been nominated for more than 15 Danish Music Awards and numerous international awards.

Rasmus has also written music for TV and film, having made music for both DR's radio program and title music for hit series on DR1.

In addition, Rasmus has been employed in Klüvers Big Band and later Aarhus Jazz Orchestra for almost 15 years – first as a trumpet player, later as artistic coordinator, and for the last three years as program manager.

The two musicians are supported by old acquaintances in the alley. Every day, Heine Hot puts together a team of experienced musicians, including Jens Nørholm, Peter Friis, Jesper Carlsen, and Søren Bo Addemos.
