Dubside sits down with musician Christian Elsner of the band Nanook. Christian and his brother Frederik grew up surrounded by music and musicians in the Atlantic Music recording studio which was founded by their parents. Over the years, the brothers channeled their passion and talents into Nanook. Their unique sound has taken them beyond Greenland, with performances across Canada, the USA, and even Japan. Now, as Greenland faces rapid changes with the opening of the new international airport in Nuuk, Christian shares his hopes and concerns for the future of his homeland. Join us for an inspiring conversation about music, identity, and Greenland's evolving future.
