Bending Backwards


Rock Eksperimental jazz DKK 100 DKK per show / 180 DKK for all-night access / 300 DKK for a 5-show punch card


Bending Backwards is a loud indie band from the Copenhagen/Århus underground scene.

Both joyful and melancholy, all their songs are filled with memories and warmth. A wall of sound embraces the audience as an ecstatic ritual; the lyrics are about being kids, death, long-distance brotherly love and longing. Noisy and naïve; never hostile or sarcastic.

The band is a bare bones trio formation: the tuneful Scott Walker-esque vocals of Frederik Vuust, backed by the loud, downtuned guitars of Halfdan Stefansson and lit up by the drumming of Johannes Jacobsen.

Bending is working on their debut album, to be released in the beginning of 2026.
