The Copenhagen-formed female art-rock duo – vocalist and keyboard-player Josephine Philip and guitarist Ina Lindgreen – have been active since their 2011 hit ‘Hey’ went viral.

Creating an altogether atmospheric, romantic and sleek sound remisicent of The XX, the duo have been touring both the US and Europe ever since the release of their self-titled debut.

Having recently released their new though unseasonably entitled record Dance and Cry, the pair have returned to the road with a domestic tour in progress. You won’t regret seeing them.

True to the founding concept of Love Hangover, the line-up – including Kong, Soulshaker, Karsten Loud and Christian D’Or – will be spinning vinyls only. For more information find the event on Facebook.

The Nørrebro-based rapper and producer Topgunn is Copenhagen’s answer to Darkest Sin. With a growing number of followers in the Copenhagen area, this is likely to sell out soon.

    Internationals in Denmark rarely join a trade union
