About Phønix

Doubble Award winners - best vocalist and best instrumentalist 2002 - for the Album pigen & drengen.

Phønix is an exciting and award-winning band on the Danish folkmusic scene. For the past 12 years they have let their contagious and modern interpretations of traditional Danish music be heard at home in Denmark, as well as throughout Europe and North America.

Whether taking the stage of some of the world’s biggest folk festivals or playing the smaller club concerts, the four talented musicians of Phønix captivate the listeners with their own special brew of breathtaking charisma, untamed enthusiasm and irresistible musical charm.

As they play, Phønix brings new life to the traditional music they love, and when they go on stage, they do so with such intensity and musicality that they are a joy to behold - for the ears as well as for the eyes.
