CAKTUS
Genres: Third Stream, 21st Century Modern • Denmark

Caktus music can be described as being in between fragility and strength – beauty and wildness – chamber music and grooves. Caktus is almost a double trio, with two double basses and two saxophones, and with this mirroring of the instruments and in the sound, it gives inspirations to also mirror, twist, wring and challenge themes and melodies. The group was founded in 2017 and with front-woman Maria Dybbroe, Caktus has already gained a lot of attention on the Danish Jazzscene and played more than 50 concerts throughout Denmark. For their debut-album 'Under Solen' they were nominated to 'Album of the year' at Danish Music Awards Jazz, as well as 'Composer of the Year' at the Danish Critic's Prize Steppeulven. from bandcamp
