VÆRKET

Værket biography
Founded in Copenhagen, Denmark in 2014

Copenhagen, Denmark is the home of the accomplished sextet of musicians that go by the name Værket. Danish for "work" or "the piece", it is the perfect moniker for a band that engages in a highly diverse set of styles in their compositions. The six players bring a broad range of weapons to the fray.

Michael Thode Schultz / Bass Guitar
Adam Kjær Nielsen / Drums, Percussion
Andreas Bunin Trap-Jensen / Flute
Anders M. Jørgensen / Guitar, Alto Saxophone
Peter Linnemann Tange / Organ, Synthesizer
Jakob Emil Lamdahl Pedersen / Vocals, Trumpet

This many performers on one stage can surely lend itself to cacophony, but these gentlemen bring a very tight product to the table. With a core styling reminiscent of the earliest days of Progressive rock, the bands incorporation of wind instruments into the mix brings a seeming collision of urban to hinterland sounds together.
