Debre Damo Dining Orchestra, known for their Ethio-jazz sound, returns to Stengade to kick off Vinterjazz Festival. Formed in 2013, the band has built a reputation as one of Europe's more persistent acts in the genre, mixing Ethiopian pentatonic melodies with krautrock, funk and free jazz.
Their latest album, Vol 4, leans into the groove of Ethio-jazz and its American funk and jazz roots, with room for psychedelic detours and wild improvisation. The band has grown with trumpet, guitar and two percussionists, adding to the live energy.
