The music is stimulating, dynamic, sometimes intimate, sensual and always swinging.

Our history
We all have a long history of playing jazz and latin music both here in Denmark and throughout the world.
We have played together as a quartet for many years, getting together for pop-up concerts all over Copenhagen. The driving force has always been our love for the latin jazz genre, and our love of playing together.
But we wanted more! So Latin Vibes is now a quartet ready to be deployed at any time for your listening and dancing pleasure.
Our mission
Latin jazz Power to the People!
This style of music has the best of it all: beautiful melodies, great arrangements, lots of improvisation, and the hottest rhythms – what’s not to like?
