Further Information

A long time coming..

After having convinced my self plenty of times that I am going to do something else in life than play music, I keep coming back to it, and now it's inevitable that I release my music. (and it has to happen fast if I die at age 27) I am planning to record a 6 track EP in September with six of my own songs and lyrics where I will sing and play the guitar and get talented people to contribute. I am very lucky that the production and recording will be in the hands of Dennis "Gettoblast" Ahlgren in his studio AabyRoad Studios in Aarhus. He has worked with artists like Tina Dickow, Helgi Jónsson, Bliglad etc.

I am a 26 year old Icelandic singer/songwriter who lives in Denmark. I have been singing since I was tiny and played blues-rock with the Icelandic band Blind Bargain for some years in Iceland. I have done a lot of cover music through the years and have performed with for example Björgvin Halldórsson, Fjallabræður, Pálmi Gunnarsson, Dúndurfréttir, Ingó Veðurguð etc. I have always written songs and lyrics but never really shared it with anyone, since I have never felt comfortable enough to play an instrument publicly. That was my excuse for many years, but now I started guitar lessons and try to be less perfectionistic. I am a place right now where I write folksy-popsy songs and play in a singer/songwriter style built up around vocals and guitar. I write lyrics about everyday life and things that matter to me and my lyrics are very personal but pretty relatable.

Why do it like this?

Well, because I don't have the money to do it right now and I don't have the patience to wait until I have it. I have been delaying this for so freaking long now and when I made the decision that I was going to do this, it felt as if I couldn't wait a minute longer and the album had to be released this second. That's why I am asking for your help, dear friends. If you had plans to buy my album in the future when it would be released, please do it now and help me make this dream of mine come true and you will get the album later on and my infinite gratitude.

Like it says in my song "Declaration" which will be on the album:

"Took me 25 years 'till I managed to free my own tongue.
Finally I see - my heart is wide open demanding my songs to be sung"
