"Significant saxophonist Simon Spang-Hanssen seriously proved that jazz in Denmark is very much alive and splashing, when he visited Giant Steps on Thursday night. With his new band of very talented young musicians, he offered a wide bouquet of refreshing songs. Mai Lan Doky, charming and expressive, was at the forefront, supported by the rest of the team in a steady and distinguished manner, with plenty of energy and swing." (Giant Steps 03/10/2023)

Simon Spang-Hanssen has composed a series of new songs in collaboration with the talented children of his former jazz buddies, pianists Ben Besiakov and Niels Lan Doky. This family music project brings together different generations of musicians, creating a broad spectrum of musical styles.

Mai and Ken grew up in a jazz world but have also worked in other musical genres such as soul, reggae, Afro-pop and Caribbean music. Similarly, David has skills in Brazilian rhythms, hip-hop and funk. Anders is equally proficient on electric and double bass and has a wide range of musical experience.

Simon Spang-Hanssen is the leader. The saxophonist has revealed himself as a songwriter since the release of his two albums, "Back to Earth" and "Speaking to the Wind", with Claudia Campagnol and Alain Apaloo on vocals.

Their new album entitled "Green or Purple" is scheduled to be released on May 19th so... stay tuned!
