Like Stephen Colbert put it: “If you’re only going to listen to one Swedish hiphop jazz band this year, let it be Movits!”

Movits! consists of brothers Johan Rensfeldt (vocals) and Anders Rensfeldt (multi-instrumentalist and DJ) and saxophonist Joakim Nilsson.

The band released their debut album Äppelknyckarjazz in 2008, but it wasn’t until the following year that they started to draw international attention after an appearance on American TV program “The Colbert Report”.

In 2011, the band released their second studio album Out Of My Head, followed by long-play albums Head Amongst the Clouds (2013) and They Tried to Bury Us, They Didn’t Know We Were Seeds (2015).

The band’s fifth album V: I was released in November 2018, the first record from the upcoming double album coming in spring 2019.
