Basix

baSix is a remarkable Danish a cappella group consisting of six guys. Spanning pop, jazz, r&b, soul, and rock and blending strong, original compositions with innovative arrangements of timeless songs, baSix has presented first-rate a cappella to fans around the world since 1999. An honorable second place in "Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2001" (the national forerunner of the Eurovision Song Contest), broadcast live on national TV, seriously kick-started the career of the six singers, who have continued to dazzle their audiences ever since. baSix has performed in concert halls, theaters, clubs, cafés, churches, festivals, at conferences, and private events in Denmark as well as abroad and has appeared on national radio and television numerous times. Latest in November 2004, where baSix performed with (among others) Mick Hucknall (Simply Red), Westlife, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Ana Johnson, Katie Melua in "The great Christmas Show". Next to various guest performances on several other artists' albums, baSix has released three personal albums so far: "The grass" (2001), "Embodiment" (2003) and “Christmastime” (2004). Right after its release, "The grass" broke into the charts and attained the best placing of an a cappella album ever recorded in Denmark, and only a few months later, it earned the group a gold album for selling more than 25,000 copies! Originally, it was the Italian vocal group Neri Per Caso who inspired the six Danish singers to get together and form a band of their own back in 1995. In the first four years, singing in baSix was no more than a precious hobby, but in 1999, the members of the vocal sextet decided to turn their musical partnership into a professional vocation and work full time with what they all enjoy the most: singing a cappella.
