Spöket i Köket distinguishes itself by being the only Scandi-French Canadian crossover Folk Bigband in Scandinavia, consisting of ten young ambitious musicians with different backgrounds in both jazz, classical, rock and folk music. The band’s repertoire consists of old and new songs and tunes from both Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Québec and Cape Breton, ranging from melancholic ballads to feisty polskas and rousing reels.
With a mix of traditional folk instruments like fiddle, wooden flute and accordion, joined by double bass, piano and guitar, and a horn section with saxophones, trumpet and trombone, this band creates a powerful, bombastic sound in the borderland between traditional folk and bigband music.
With twenty instruments played by ten musicians, the energy is high and outgoing and the response is overwhelmingly positive wherever Spöket i Köket is performing.
