“Lakes & Fires” blev dannet I 2024 af de tre venner Birk Nevel, Lasse Boman og Shaka
Loveless. De har spillet sammen i forskellige projekter siden starten af nullerne og
bandet er dannet på et fundament af venskab, skabertrang og kreativitet. Udover at
have spillet sammen i hip hop kollektivet ”Gypsies” og indie pop/rock bandet ”Are
We brothers?”, har medlemmerne været involveret i en masse forskellige projekter
på den danske musikscene.
Shaka Loveless gik solo i de tidlige 2010’ere med stor
kommerciel succes, hvor han bl.a. vandt en DMA i 2013 for årets mandlige artist.
Lasse Boman har haft stor succes som sangskriver med kæmpehits i bagagen med
bl.a. Uro og Drew Sycamore.
Birk Nevel arbejder som producer og er en af de mest
efterspurgte trommeslagere på den danske live- og studiescene. Han er en del af
”Familien”, som er kendt for deres samarbejde med Benjamin Hav, som har givet
ham en ”Gaffa Award” i 2023 for bedste liveact.
Der er ingen tvivl om, at medlemmerne af ”Lakes & Fires” har vundet deres plads i
dansk musik. Men når man arbejder i en mainstream musikindustri, kan det skabe et
kreativt undertryk for at lave noget frit for forventninger og kommercielle
overvejelser - noget, hvor hver sang og hver tone får lov til at være præcis, hvad den
vil.
I begyndelsen af 2024 mødtes de tre venner i et øvelokale og begyndte at jamme.
Efter et par sessions begyndte et musikalsk koncept at udvikle sig – centreret
omkring groove, mentale billeder og længsel. I starten var ideen at gøre projektet
helt instrumentalt, men uden at sætte begrænsninger for den kreative strøm, blev
ord og melodier til sidst introduceret. Vokal og tekst er dog ikke essensen af
sangene, men hjælper blot med at danne billeder og stemninger.
"Vores sange er lyden af vores længsler fra et langt liv i musikbranchen – ting, vi
måtte få ud, for at holde kærligheden til musikken i live.”
- Lakes & Fires.
Kom til en storslået aften, hvor vi ekstraordinært præsenterer to hovednavne. Begge upcoming, begge med lyden af sol i deres kerne.

“Lakes & Fires” was formed in 2024 by three friends: Birk Nevel, Lasse Boman, and Shaka Loveless. Having played together in various projects since the early 2000s, the band was built on a foundation of friendship, creativity, and a deep urge to create. In addition to their collaborations in the hip-hop collective Gypsies and the indie pop/rock band Are We Brothers?, the members have been involved in numerous projects on the Danish music scene.
Shaka Loveless launched a successful solo career in the early 2010s, winning a Danish Music Award in 2013 for Male Artist of the Year.
Lasse Boman has achieved great success as a songwriter, with major hits for artists like Uro and Drew Sycamore.
Birk Nevel works as a producer and is one of the most sought-after drummers in Denmark’s live and studio scenes. He is part of Familien, known for their collaboration with Benjamin Hav, which earned him a Gaffa Award in 2023 for Best Live Act.
There’s no doubt that the members of Lakes & Fires have earned their place in Danish music. But working within the mainstream music industry can create a creative pressure valve — a longing to create something free from expectations and commercial considerations; something where each song and each note is allowed to be exactly what it wants to be.
At the beginning of 2024, the three friends met in a rehearsal space and began jamming. After a few sessions, a musical concept started to emerge — centered around groove, mental imagery, and longing. Initially, the idea was to keep the project fully instrumental, but without restricting the creative flow, words and melodies eventually entered the picture. However, vocals and lyrics are not the core of the songs — they merely help shape the atmosphere and visuals.
“Our songs are the sound of our longings after a lifetime in the music industry — things we had to express in order to keep the love of music alive.”
– Lakes & Fires.
Join us for a magnificent evening where we exceptionally present two headliners. Both are up-and-coming, both with the sound of sunshine at their core.
