World-class new Nordic music
Is there a more daringly inventive acoustic band in the Nordic sphere than Dreamers' Circus? Since first crossing paths at a late-night jam session in Copenhagen, they have grown into one of the most adventurous and internationally acclaimed bands in Nordic folk and traditional music. This genre-defying trio blends breathtaking virtuosity with an adventurous spirit, crafting a sound that is both deeply rooted and strikingly contemporary.
Drawing from backgrounds in traditional music, classical performance, and jazz improvisation, the band weaves together influences with effortless finesse. The result is a musical universe where Nordic folk traditions meet the lyricism of classical music and the pulse of pop and jazz – all delivered with dazzling energy and melodic richness.
The trio features Nikolaj Busk (piano, accordion), Rune Tonsgaard Sørensen (violin), and Ale Carr (cittern). Busk is a prolific composer and arranger whose work spans folk, pop, jazz, and classical ensembles, with 15 Danish Music Awards to his name. Sørensen, a founding member of the Grammy-nominated Danish String Quartet, grew up steeped in traditional Faroese and Danish music. Carr, born into a renowned Swedish folk music family, is one of Scandinavia's leading innovators on string instruments.
Over seven albums, Dreamers' Circus have established themselves as one of Denmark's leading ensembles, honoured by the Danish Arts Foundation as a "Special Ensemble." Their extensive touring includes regular appearances across Europe, North America, and Japan, earning them a growing international reputation as musical ambassadors for the new Nordic sound.
They've collaborated widely and contributed original music to film, television, theatre, and contemporary dance - including the acclaimed The Lost Musicians with Aaben Dans. Their most recent album, Handed On, is a celebration and reflection of their musical heritage.
The name Dreamers' Circus hints at a world of imagination, daring, and craft - qualities that shine through in live performances marked by precision, passion and playful joy.
"They're world class. Now the world needs to hear them." - Chris Nickson, Sing Out
"Dreamers' Circus does for Nordic folk music what Astor Piazzolla did for Argentinian tango." - Kim Skotte, Politiken
"Charisma, talent and a powerful performance onstage" - Songlines
