Christmas song in the making!

Thorbjørn Risager & The Black Tornado feat. Kira Skov – Julenat

A new Danish Christmas song with soul, intimacy and blues in its blood.

When darkness falls early and the winter cold settles in, Thorbjørn Risager & The Black Tornado light a warm flame in the December night with their new Christmas single “Julenat” – a heartfelt and atmospheric duet featuring songstress Kira Skov.

Julenat is a blues-tinged ballad about longing, light and love in the heart of winter’s darkness and the first song by Thorbjørn in Danish.

With Risager’s distinctive, soulful vocals and Kira Skov’s intense presence, a unique meeting takes place between two worlds: raw blues and poetic melancholy.

“We wanted to make a Christmas song that wasn’t about gifts and glitter, but about that time of year when we feel both loss and hope most deeply,” says Thorbjørn Risager.

Musically, Julenat moves through a landscape between Nordic soul, blues and roots, carried by warm strings and woodwinds in an organic soundscape. Kira Skov’s voice adds a fragile elegance that elevates the song into something timeless – a piece that strikes both the heart and the Christmas spirit.

The song will be released November 14, 2025, on all digital platforms.
