ARTIST STATEMENT
I like to see myself as a researcher on human behaviour, studying first and foremost my own everyday life and escapades or the lack of such. I’m fascinated by the power of words, but also a great admirer of coincidence and I always hope to be as honest, funny and poetic as can be, usually working my but off to get the lyrics right. Singing is where I express myself most truthfully and where I feel connected with the world around me.
My aim is to rub off that feeling onto the audience and share the experience of music moving the soul, reinstalling lost emotions and the wonders of exactly that.

Nuværende hovedprojekt
“Sange fra det indre/ydre rum” er et tværkulturelt koncert/foredragsprojekt, hvor jeg giver koncert på observatorier og Lars Occhionero holder foredrag om astereoseismologi (=stjernernes musik).
Det er samtidig arbejdstitlen på mit kommende album, der kommer til at indeholde sange om dagligdagens små mysterier og glemte længsler. Forventes at udkomme i 2022.
