Late-August Music: Christopher walking tall, twerking it like Miley

Christopher
Fri Aug 19, 21:30; Tivoli, entry included with admission

A dominant force in the Danish charts, Christopher’s fans might mostly be teenage girls, but he is an earnest soul well beyond his 24 years, which might explain why he dated Medina, ten years his senior, for a couple of years.

His most famous hit, ‘CPH Girls’ was ever-present on Danish radio stations last year.

He is also known for his collaboration with American rapper Brandon Beal on the tune ‘Twerk it like Miley’.

The singer will be promoting his latest singles and album, released in April, so why not check him out and integrate into the local pop music scene.
