Movits! is a Swedish music group hailing from Luleå, known for their unique blend of swing, jazz, and hip-hop, all performed with an infectious energy that has captivated audiences both in their home country and internationally. The band consists of brothers Johan Jivin' Rensfeldt (vocals) and Anders Rensfeldt (multi-instrumentalist/ DJ), along with saxophonist Joakim Nilsson. They burst onto the international music scene with their debut album "Äppelknyckarjazz" in 2008, which was quickly followed by an appearance on the popular American talk show hosted by Stephen Colbert, catapulting them to greater fame.

Movits!'s music features an eclectic mix of instruments and styles, characterized by a lively swing rhythm underpinning clever, rapid-fire Swedish rap lyrics. The use of brass and swing beats gives their sound a vintage feel, while their lyrical wit and modern cultural references anchor them firmly in the present. Over the years, they have maintained relevance with a consistent stream of releases, including their most recent, such as "Otänkbart" and "Dansa på min grav." With each new album and track, from "Sirius" to "V:II," Movits! continues to push the boundaries of their genre-defying music, preserving their identity as innovative artists who refuse to be pigeonholed. Their live performances are known for their high energy and infectious grooves, ensuring that they remain a beloved act on the festival circuit and in music venues around the globe.
