Sunshine grooves and wild, jazzy horns come together in Sunbörn - a 6-piece instrumental group from Denmark that has released 3 albums, toured the world and won Denmarks top music award (Danish Music Award/Grammy) 3 times as The KutiMangoes.
They are changing the band name to Sunbörn to match the development in their sound and to underline a stronger connection to where they come from. This new chapter will be marked by releasing new music including collaborations with, among others, Clap! Clap! (I), Caio Marcio (BR), BIGYUKI (JP), Ida Nielsen/Bassida (DK), DJ Opolopo (S), DJ Francis Mercier (H), and Moderator (G). First single out on November 25th 2022.
