About
The four-piece band Den Dala from Zurich captivates with their distinctive instrumental sound, blending influences from indie, jazz and psychedelic rock. Their music thrives on inventive guitar melodies, a strong sense of groove, and dreamy soundscapes. Den Dala’s new studio album, Say Hi To The Storks, was released in November 2025, marking the band’s most ambitious work to date. Inspired by storks and other observations, the band creates their signature relaxed atmosphere throughout the album. The ten instrumental tracks showcase both the musicians’ collective chemistry and the unique guitar playing of bandleader and frontman Andrin Stettler. The band, whose members met at the Jazz School, have been performing together since 2021. What started as a solo project by Andrin Stettler gradually evolved into a wellrehearsed group that brings vibrant energy to every stage. With performances at festivals such as m4music, BScene, and Montreux Jazz Festival, Den Dala has established themselves in the Swiss music scene and continues to captivate a growing audience far beyond the country’s borders.
