Langendorf United
Curiosity, playfulness, humor, and depth run through the very heart of Langendorf United’s musical interaction. The band has an exceptional ability to create a magnetic stage presence, drawing the audience into the music. This connection is often noted by concertgoers, many of whom describe the experience as one of the most memorable live performances they’ve ever had.
”I experienced one of the best concerts ever: Langendorf United. Groovy jazz grounded in African rhythms, with subtle touches of soul and rock.”
Lina Langendorf is an award-winning composer and multi-instrumentalist from northeastern Sweden, now based in Stockholm. Throughout her career, she has collaborated with a wide range of artists across various genres, from jazz and reggae to Malian blues, Ethio-jazz, pop, rock, and Balkan music. Her work has earned praise from Songlines Magazine, Aquarium Drunkard, Lira Magazine, and the legendary Mulatu Astatke, among others. Her music has also been featured on Sweden’s Sveriges Radio and BBC.
In 2024, Langendorf United won the Manifest Award for Album of the Year in the Rhythm category for their debut album Yeahno Yowouw Land, and their highly anticipated new album Undercover Beast will be released in late September 2025.
”This is music for the mind and the body, for dancing and trancing, for socializing, and for deep, meditative listening.” – Celeste Cantor-Stephens, Songlines Magazine (Yeahno Yowouw Land was selected as one of the Top 10 albums on Songlines Top of the World list).
