Watch Danish newcomers Nelson Can in session for Best Fit

Denmark’s a cool bed of talent these days. Just think of the jaw-dropping harmonies of The White Album or the challenging future-pop of MØ. Building on a inventive homegrown scene, girl trio Nelson Can come to us as an exquisite, fully formed proposition.

Fronted by Selina Gin on vocals, bassist Signe SigneSigne and drummer Maria Juntmen, the three Danes might be mining similar territory to Deap Valley and show buddies The Black Keys but there’s an elegance, playfulness and a certain Scandinavian slant that sets them apart far enough to carve out a space entirely for themselves. And we haven’t even talked about the lack of six strings – it’s just bass, vocals and voices. Nothing more.

Since their debut EP at the beginning of last year, the girls have kicked up a storm in all the right places and it was at the Eurosonic showcase in the Netherlands where we caught up with them for a Best Fit Session. Filmed at the top of a car-park in Groningen, this (slightly) stripped back take on their stomping signature tune ‘People’s Republic Of China’ condenses everything we love about them into three-and-a-bit glorious minutes.

Nelson Can tour around Europe in February and March and are due to come to the UK with dates to be announced soon.
