Six City Stompers at Jonstrup Jazzfestival at Jonstrup Gl. Seminarium

Six City Stompers consists of young talented and acclaimed musicians that set a very high musical standard and contribute with a refreshing breeze to the traditional jazz scene.
All of the members of the band have a childhood with Louis Armstrongs music in common. Not many young people play classic, traditional and New Orlenas Jazz, and with their love for the genre it was therefore natural for the six boys to form the band Six City Stompers.
Six City Stompers play mostly vocal jazz, with the young talented crooner and sax player Mads Mathias in front, but also beautiful instrumental arrangements. Some songs have been found in the book of good old evergreens and others are originals....

Six City Stompers consists of young talented and acclaimed musicians that set a very high musical standard and contribute with a refreshing breeze to the traditional jazz scene.
All of the members of the band have a childhood with Louis Armstrongs music in common. Not many young people play classic, traditional and New Orlenas Jazz, and with their love for the genre it was therefore natural for the six boys to form the band Six City Stompers.
Six City Stompers play mostly vocal jazz, with the young talented crooner and sax player Mads Mathias in front, but also beautiful instrumental arrangements. Some songs have been found in the book of good old evergreens and others are originals.
Their glow and joy is easy to hear when they play, and with their age and enthusiasm they refresh the jazz scene and attract a younger and wider crowd.
In the summer 2006 they won the “European Championship of Traditional Jazz” publics first prize in Paris, with votes counting more than double all the other participating bands alltogether, and won several soloist prizes aswell.
The band was formed in 2004 and since then they have toured mostly in Scandinavian countries, but also in other parts of Europe and China.
They have played on almost all the Danish jazz festivals, played live on national television in Denmark(DR1), and Norway (NR1).
They have taken pride in participating in several New Orleans charity concerts, supporting the music community of New Orleans.

Six City Stompers består af unge talentfulde og anerkendte musikere som sætter et fantastisk højt
musikalsk niveau og bidrager med et frisk pust til den traditionelle Jazzscene. Bandet spiller overvejende
vokaljazz, med den unge talentfulde crooner og saxofonist Mads Mathias i front, men også smukke
instrumentale arrangementer.
En del af musikken består af gyldne evergreens fra den amerikanske sangskat og gruppens repertoire
indeholder også egne numre. Deres glød og glæde kan tydeligt høres, og Six City Stompers er med deres
alder og entusiasme med til at give scenen et frisk pust og tiltrække et bredere og yngre publikum.
