About this artist

Danish duo/trio by journalist/musician Torben Steno and Magtens Korridorer vocalist Johan Olsen. Their debut 5-track EP was released as a duo project backed by violinist Kristine Algot. Soon after mezzosoprano saxophonist, clarinetist Peter Bech-Jessen took over as a regular third member. At the time of the second album the band became a quartet when producer Søren Mikkelsen joined on double bass. The group project is to revive schlager tradition with a tongue in cheek approach while maintaining the genres sing-along melodies and sentimentality.
