Abekejser was founded in 2015 in the danish city of Aarhus, the current hotbed of the scandinavian music scene. The four young musicians with a background in Jazz and World-Music knew each other through their memberships in several other formations when they finally decided to combine their individual ideas through a common musical vision and so they created an highly individual, urban universe between jazz, beats and electronica that shares some musical ground with bands like Snarky Puppy, Jaga Jazzist or piano-visionary Robert Glasper, but follows its very own rules by doing so.

After their debut album "Floating Through The Universe", which already made noticeably enthusiastic waves in the bustling Scandinavian and British jazz scene and even received the Danish "Jazznytprisen" award as "best jazz act of 2019", Abekejser have now announced a new album called "Blueprint", which will be released in November 2021.
