Damkapellet is a music collective formed in 2016 to bring diversity to the Danish music scene by highlighting and performing music by artists who define themselves as women, non-binary or transgender. Demiurge, the collective's debut album, presents Damkapellet's unique approach to music-making with a carefully assorted programme that treads gentle lyricism and bold creative outbursts in equal measures.
Recorded in 2020 at KoncertKirken, Copenhagen, Denmark.
