Live Foyn Friis is an outstanding vocalist with an irresistible presence and charisma, whose enchanting, ethereal vocal-tone and original songs conjure up a musical landscape she describes as ‘indie-jazz’, stretching the borders between jazz and indie-pop. This Danish/Norwegian band have been in existence since 2008 and their debut release, ‘Joy Visible’, was nominated for ‘Best Danish Jazz Album’ at the Danish Music Awards, followed by awards for Young Jazz Composer of the Year (DR) and Denmark’s New Jazz Star (DPA).
