EIVØR

In the organizer's words:

Special guest: Rabbitology

In spring 2027, Eivør will once again bring her unmistakable sound world to Germany. The exceptional artist from the Faroe Islands, who has been one of the most independent voices in Northern Europe for years, combines archaic roots with modern sound research and creates an intense live experience that goes far beyond an ordinary concert. Growing up in a small village between steep cliffs, grassy hills and the extreme contrasts of Faroese nature, this landscape still shapes Eivør's music today. The centuries-old tradition of singing together - deeply rooted in Faroese culture - forms the emotional foundation of their work. She combines old, a cappella melodies with Renaissance echoes with beatboxing, throat singing and powerful growls. This special vocal technique has long since become her trademark: raw, untamed and direct. With eleven studio albums and the Nordic Council Music Prize, Eivør has continuously developed her artistic vision. A decisive turning point was the experimental album "Larva", with which she consciously broke away from folk conventions. With "ENN", her debut for the Season of Mist label, she reached a new artistic dimension. The album came about after a creative retreat to the small mountain village of Tjørnuvík on the Faroe Islands, where she wrote together with composer Tróndur Bogason without a fixed goal - and redefined the core of her work at the time. Songs such as "Gaia", a hymn of love to the earth, or the opening track "Ein Klóta", which describes the feeling of looking at one's own world from a distance, unfold a cinematic force live. "Jardartra" pulsates like a heartbeat from the perspective of our planet, while the title track "ENN" addresses the darkness of war and searches for a glimmer of hope. With "Upp Úr Øskuni", Eivør also makes a powerful statement for female solidarity and reveals a mixture of growling, beatboxing and archaic throat singing. In addition to her solo work, Eivør has also composed music for films, series and games such as The Last Kingdom and God of War in recent years, which gives her live show an additional dramatic depth. When she comes to Munich in August 2026, folkloric roots, electronic elements, classical influences and cinematic expanses will merge to create an intense overall experience. The concert promises a journey between earth and cosmos, past and present - immediate, powerful and unique.
