About Phønix

Phønix is one of Denmark's best and most booked folk music bands. The completely unique sound universe of this award-winning band has led them around the world to the biggest folk festivals and the most intimate club stages.

The four talented musicians of Phønix excellently capture their listeners with their own unique mix of untamed enthusiasm and irresistible musical charm.

”They have really reached the master class and have both roots, musical nerve and ability to play to a big audience at home and abroad. Anja Præst's clarinets run up and down in harmony with Jesper Vinthers accordeon, and Jesper Falch is an incredibly present and live rhythmist. I really works well, Karen Mose is a gifted and clear vocalist – you just have to take off your hat and say: That's the way to do it!” – RootsZone (DK)

Phønix bring new life to the Danish music tradition, and when they enter the stage, they do it with such intensity and musicality that it is a pleasure to witness – for both ears and eyes.
