🎸 Svanger

About

Svanger is a Danish duo formed by Selma Lind Thormann (trumpet) and Miamaja Vinther (saxophone), rooted in Nordic folk music and the Danish song tradition, which they weave together with contemporary jazz. Using loops, effects and voice, they push the limits of what two melody instruments can do in dialogue. Their project is also a deliberate artistic statement on femininity - in sound and concept alike - and their album 'mor fødes' forms part of that work.
