Sunken Ships

by Asbjørn

supported by

saint "Sunken Ships" is a stunning compilation of coming-of-age narratives that are lyrically powerful in both their honest simplicity and tender, eloquent metaphor. Seamless, mature, and thematically cohesive, this album is a nostalgic look into the past from Asbjørn's shoes. Here is a beautiful fusion of folk and pop, and a promising debut album. Favorite track: Hunger.

Bryson Ledsinger Such a great song, so glad I found this guy! Favorite track: Strange Ears.

about

Asbjørn is that cool Nordic wind. He's got bad bones and strange ears. He is your dose of melancholy. He does not trash hotel rooms but he dances to make you understand that he is the new sound of pop.

Growing up in the footsteps of Britney, Destiny's Child and Spice Girls, 19-year-old Asbjørn is a real pop kid. Torn between the Nordic melancholy and a relentless determination to dance, he is the long lost son of Jackson and Schubert! A strange hybrid - the missing link. With one foot in the symphonic classical tradition and the other on synthetic pop ground, Asbjørn's melodies balance on an organic layer of hand-played electronica.

"Sunken Ships" was recorded over two years in Aarhus - Asbjørn's home town - with Stillwalker producer Jonas Tranberg (Efterklang, Murder a.o.).
