Thorbjörn Risager & The Black Tornado

Thorbjörn Risager & The Black Tornado are Denmark's leading roots-rock act, a fact they've proven with their new album "House of Sticks" (released 01/25 on Mascot Records). For over two decades, the band has performed tirelessly on stages worldwide, captivating audiences time and again. It's not just their charismatic stage presence, but also their distinctive sound that blends soul, Chicago blues, boogie, and rock and roll, drawing listeners into their spell. Thorbjörn Risager's voice-somewhere between Ray Charles, Van Morrison, and Billy Gibbons-is the icing on the cake.

This multi-award-winning septet has won over not just fans, but fellow musicians and legends alike. The band has supported Bonnie Raitt and Tedeschi Trucks Band, while frontman Thorbjörn Risager has shared the stage with icons like Buddy Guy, Doyle Bramhall II, and Robben Ford. And who can claim that Elwood Blues himself-Dan Aykroyd-is a fan?

In January 2025, Thorbjörn Risager & The Black Tornado released their ninth studio album "House of Sticks" on their new label, Provogue/Mascot Label Group, earning praise from both fans and critics alike!
