Surf, klezmer and cinematic energy
Alaska Blonde is the rhythm section that forms the backbone of the award-winning band
Klezmofobia. With four albums, international tours, hundreds of concerts worldwide and a Danish

guitar themes, trance and repetitions that slowly unfold and draw the listener into a hypnotic flow. It
is music that can be experienced both introverted and meditative – and at the same time insistent
and propulsive.
For Alaska Blonde, instrumental music is not only about immersion, but also about community. The
concerts are physical and energetic, and the repetitive groove invites the audience out of their
chairs. The music creates a space where you move together – where dance, pulse and collective
energy are just as important as the cinematic atmospheres.
Alaska Blonde is instrumental music with a desire for storytelling, movement and physicality – a
place for immersion, unity and dance....
