Vinderne af Carl Prisen 2021 blev afsløret i dag ved et stort event i festsalen på Axelborg.

We are proud to announce the very first Nordic Folk Festival, located in Northern Denmark on the small island of Livø in the Limfjord as well as in Vitskøl Abbey between July 2nd-4th July 2021.

Trioen Dreamers' Circus blev i stor stil hædret for 2020-udgivelsen Blue White Gold, da de i aftes kunne gå hjem med hele tre ud af syv priser ved DMA Roots. Prisfesten løb af stablen i Amager Bio og bød, trods corona-restriktioner, på fantastisk stemning, lækker live-musik og masser af hædring af det, det hele drejer sig om - musikken og dens rødder.

It is a cause of particular pleasure for us in Dreamers’ Circus to have been appointed “Stadsmusikanter” in Roskilde for a period of three years starting in January 2021. Stadsmusikanter translates literally as ‘town musicians,’ others may see it as a type of ‘artist in residence’ position.

In late 2019 Dreamers’ Circus were asked by the Danish Arts Foundation to submit an application for their Special Ensemble funding strand. As a result, Dreamers’ Circus, along with two other musical adventurists, the band, Efterklang, and the musician, Lars Greve, were appointed as Special Ensembles for three years beginning in January 2021.

I år bliver Dreamers’ Circus’ julekoncerter i lige så høj grad en hyldest til de kolde måneder når vi i samspil med sanger Hannah Schneider og fortællelegende Søren Ryge tager jer med på en vinterrejse med inspiration fra Schuberts sangcyklus af samme navn.

Dreamers' Circus Joins Kirshbaum Associates

The Danish/Swedish roots trio Dreamers’ Circus stands at the forefront of Nordic folk music. Since coming together in 2009, Nikolaj Busk (piano and accordion), Ale Carr (Nordic cittern), and Rune Tonsgaard Sørensen (violin, also of the Danish String Quartet) have shared their innovative blend of contemporary and traditional folk with thousands throughout Europe, Japan, Australia, and the United States.

Among the leaders in taking the new nordic music brand to a wider world the Danish/Swedish roots trio, Dreamers’ Circus, have been threatening an international breakthrough following extensive touring in the USA, Europe and Japan over recent times. Marking a ten year anniversary with the release of their fourth album, Blue White Gold they continue to open ears and are well set to solidify a growing international reputation.
