Bands
Don Vappie October 2027
Another wonderful New Orleans musician, Don Vappie, whom I first heard at a concert with the Preservation Hall Jazzband at Musikhuset in Aarhus in 1997, has visited Denmark with me fifteen times between 1999 and 2025. He will be back in October 2027.
Jérôme Etcheberry October 2028
This tour will be followed in October 2028 by French trumpeter Jérôme Etcheberry, with the theme "A tribute to Louis Armstrong - part 2".
Finn Burich New Orleans Jazzband.
An acclaimed, accomplished and swinging band featuring some of Jutland’s finest jazz musicians in this style.
Between 1995 and 2023, we played more than twenty January concerts each year, as well as an extensive autumn tour. Today I concentrate on my annual September–October tour with my international band. During the rest of the year I perform as a guest with various bands and play a number of concerts with my New Orleans band, featuring talented musicians from Jutland.
Finn Burich International New Orleans Jazzband.
Since 1995, I have organised tours around Denmark with leading international artists. In 2015, I was able to present American singer Lillian Boutté on her twentieth January tour of Denmark. We completed 21 annual tours with Lillian before illness forced her to retire in the summer of 2016.
We continued our annual January tours with American-born Monique Thomas, who admirably took over from Lillian Boutté as the frontwoman of Burich-l´Etienne New Orleans Ensemble. We completed six annual tours (2017–2023). No further tours with Monique are planned, as she signed a long-term contract with Andre Rieu.
In October 2026, Finn Burich presented the acclaimed, award-winning trumpeter Enrico Tomasso on tour in Denmark for the first time, under the theme "A tribute to Louis Armstrong".
Alongside the annual tours with international soloists, I have been a regular member of “Pakhusorkestret” since 2002, “Red Hot Four+2” since 2007 and Vestre Jazzværk since 2021. I was also a regular member of the Danish–Swedish “Frazzes N.O. Stompers” for several years, and have appeared as a guest with “Norbert Susemihl´s Joyful Gumbo”, “Bourbon Street Jazzband”, “Creole Clarinets”, “Paul Harrison Band”, “Kansas City Stompers”, “Henning Munk og Plumperne” and others.
