Phew! That was the end of 2017! a year of much ambivalence. On the good side: Mandagsklubben is growing and growing. We have had amazing concerts every monday year round. we have had amazing audiences! and we are booked until august 2018 of more amazing stuff. We also won a Danish Music Award. It really feels like Mandagsklubben is a place where we can meet and be ourselves and celebrate each others creativity. yeah!!! and its a place of unity which by its very existence is directly dismissing any attempts of polarization of our scene. On the bad side we lost some of the masters of the music, some of the artists directly responsible for the freedom we experience today. Many have passed on...have to mention Sunny Murray, Muhal Richard Abrams, Roswell Rudd, Micha Mengelberg, Charles Bobo Shaw and Phil Cohran. And at home we lost one of our greatest musicians, brother Nicolai Munch Hansen....

And at home we lost one of our greatest musicians, brother Nicolai Munch Hansen.
We are happy to announce that our January artist in residence is the incredible pianist, singer and composer Johanna Borchert! She has recently returned to the Copenhagen scene after 8 years in Berlin, her place of origin. Loved by audiences as a deeply original and complex performer in such (now legendary) bands as Little Red Suitcase and Schneeweiss & Rosenrot, she has since then added prizewinning singersongwriter to her list of merits. She has worked with Fred Frith, Shahzad Ismaily, Peter Bruun, Jonas Westergaard, Elena Setien and Chris Brown.
In 2014 She launched a career as an alternative pop singer, releasing "Fm Biography" and won the prestigious ECHO award for it and in 2017 "Love or Emptiness" came out, causing critics to compare her to Kate Bush. She has also made a beautiful solo keyboard album called "Orchestra Ideal" She has decided to use her Mandagsklubben residency to make new musical acquaintances and celebrate old relationships. We are very proud to welcome this unique artist back to Denmark and into Mandagsklubben!!!!
