“She’s been in our sights since the release of her quintet Dafnie’s first album in 2022. On stage, Amalie Dahl doesn’t assert herself forcefully, but with a clear and captivating purpose. Her maturity is surprising: four albums released since late 2023 prove it. Her solo “Memories”, Baob from the trio Treen, “Live In Europe” by the trio Dahl, Dalen, Søvik, and Dafnie’s second album, accompanied by a European tour. The quintet, a sort of dream team of this new Scandinavian generation, seems unable to disappoint. And if, for Dahl, friendship and work are the keys to this precocity, we can, after this encounter, add that artistic vision and honesty are also guarantees of success.”

I’m very greatful that I got to talk to Peter Margasak for the April issue of DownBeat:

“Live At Moldejazz (Sonic Transmissions), the impressive, assured and heady debut album from Danish reedist and composer Amalie Dahl’s 12-member Dafnie EXTENDED, conveys a maturity one might not expect from a 30-year old.”
