New Album From Guitarist David Miilmann

Danish quintet David Miilmann Group return with “You Belong”, their third album and a vibrant, uplifting statement.

Released on April Records on June 12th, 2026, “You Belong” centers on Miilmann’s approach to the guitar, drawing on the phrasing of singers like Curtis Mayfield, Freddie King and Aretha Franklin. His slide playing – developed as a way of emulating the human voice – sits at the core of the group’s sound, cutting through a warm, rhythmically grounded backdrop that blends jazz, rock, and Brazilian influences.

At its core, the album captures a working band in motion. The five musicians move fluidly between composed material and looser, more exploratory sections, guided by close listening and a shared sense of direction. That chemistry comes into focus on “It’s Happening Again,” a groove-led track steeped in a warm, 1970s-inspired production style. Built on a relaxed but propulsive feel, it captures the simple joy of time spent with close friends – familiar, unforced, and full of possibility.
