Blaue Blume

Danish dream-rock group Blaue Blume was born in the city of Kolding in central Denmark in the late 2000s, when school-friends Søren Buhl Lassen and Jonas Smith joined forces to make music together (their current line-up is Lassen and Smith, plus Robert Jensen Buhl and Buster Jensen). The members recognised a spark in each other, a sensation of something special that Søren saw even from the first rehearsal: “It instantly felt like this could be a band, even though we weren’t yet“.

Now a decade on from that moment, that feeling has spread from the rehearsal space to fans around Europe and beyond, through two EPs and two albums, as well as hundreds of live shows. Blaue Blume work in heartfelt, sweeping art-rock, lush, dramatic compositions personified by vocalist Smith’s tender but tough, emotionally affecting falsetto.
