The KutiMangoes
In 2013, a group of renowned Danish musicians showed up on the club scene. Their goal was to put together a band which would fuse their European backgrounds with the west African music of Fela Kuti and the eclectic music of jazz bassist Charles Mingus. Led by Gustav Rasmussen and Michael Blicher, they released their debut album Afro-Fire a year later. Following this success, the band has toured worldwide, appearing at festivals in Asia, Africa and Europe such as Reeperbahn Festival (DE), Jarasum Int. Jazz Festival (S. Korea), Reykjavik Jazz Festival (I), Jazzy Koum Ben (Mali), Copenhagen Jazz Festival (DK) and OCT-Loft Festival (Ch). In 2016 the group released their second album Made in Africa.
