Denmark’s leading outlet for jazz April Records presents their first debut of 2025 from a brand new quintet of some of the country’s most well known and respected young musicians - collectively called Oh People.

Inspired by the works of Duke Ellington in the 20’s and combining them with sounds that came to life over half a Century later with a palpable sense of joy and love, ‘Part Time Elegance’ explores the idioms and tropes of the golden age of jazz. The record is built from deep pocket swing, lovesick ballads, percolating latin grooves, and upbeat melodies that can’t help but bring a smile to one’s face. With undertones of contentment and playfulness, each song evokes a sound and style of some of the 20th’s Century’s greatest jazz composers before evolving into passages of animated improvisation from Denmark’s finest new-generation soloists.
