Danish talent Nana Rashid has been all over the country with her critically acclaimed and award-winning debut album Music For Betty. At this year's Vinterjazz Festival, she begins the process for her next release.
In the winter of 2024, Nana Rashid visited DR Koncerthuset's Studio 2 during Vinterjazz and also graced the poster as a background image for the entire festival. This summer, she took over Bremen Theater for 'A Night For Betty' during Copenhagen Jazz Festival.
