They’re world class. Now the world needs to hear them.

— Sing Out

Dreamers’ Circus has become one of the most acclaimed and adventurous acoustic bands to emerge from Scandinavia. The talented trio includes a face that will be familiar to VRS audiences – violinist Rune Tonsgaard Sørensen of the Danish String Quartet. Blending Nordic folk with classical lyricism, jazz improvisation, and pop energy, the trio creates a sound that is both rooted and forward-looking, and one that is underpinned by their virtuosic musical abilities across a diverse range of instruments that include violin, fiddle, accordion, piano and cittern. What they offer is new, genre-defying and exciting. The artists themselves say:

We are often asked what kind of music we play. Even if it is music that does not readily lend itself to instant classification, we try and encourage people to view it as something that can transcend genres. Perhaps it is no bad thing to defy classification now and again. So while we share a love of folk and traditional music, and play quite a bit of it still, there are strains and influences from so many other music forms in what we do.

It has taken us a few years to find a mutually-suitable date for their Vancouver debut. Mark your calendars!
