Copenhagen-based G.HO (she/her) is a DJ and selector who cannot resist funky, jazz-infused sounds. A life-long music nerd and eternal hip-shaker grown up in Singapore and Australia, she has a knack for bringing people together, storytelling across a range of genres while keeping her feet firmly planted in heavy grooves. She’ll take you on a journey with infectious energy, colourful rhythms and soulful vocals – think joie de vivre with a little cheek and grime – music for life and movement. More G.HO here.
Background: Together with a large group of Danish and international partners, Roskilde Festival Group has launched a project: »Music & Music Festivals as Change Drivers«. In essence, the project aims to engage Danish and international music festivals and live organizers in conversations about the potential and responsibility of using music, musicians, and the festival’s unique community space as catalysts for change within themes such as sustainability, social inclusion, and mental health. The project will unfold over two years (2024–2025) in Denmark, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
