Dee Don Danube

A unique collaboration uniting musicians from Aberdeen and its twin city Regensburg in Germany, the Dee Don Danube project has been a highlight of Aberdeen Jazz Festival for many years. 

Drawing on connections between the two cities, the group presents original music shaped by shared traditions, new friendships and an open, creative approach to improvisation.

From Aberdeen, vocalist AiiTee and pianist Neil Birse will be joined by Josef Nitsch and Julius Peter Nitsch. 

AiiTee is a talented up and coming singer/songwriter based in Scotland. Originally from Nigeria, AiiTee’s style is a unique blend of Afrobeat, Soul, Gospel and R&B. She started releasing music at the start of 2020 and has seen her music grow from strength to strength. Aberdeen-born Neil Birse is a superb jazz pianist and composer who has built a rich and varied career performing across Scotland, London and beyond. His playing combines technical skill with a wonderful feel for improvisation and he brings real energy and creativity to every performance. 

With jazz, improvisation and melody flowing from both cities, Dee Don Danube is both undefinable and clearly from the twin cities.
