Philharmonics by Agnes Obel

Share

Agnes Caroline Thaarup Obel is a Danish singer, songwriter and musician. Agnes began playing piano as a child, thus discovering songwriting. In her late teens she founded the Copenhagen based band, Sohio, together with the Danish musician and producer Elton Theander. The two worked together for several years. Agnes is known for her “do-it-yourself” attitude to music making. She writes, plays, sings, record and produce her material on her own. Anges Obel’s debut single “Just So” was written and recorded in her bedroom. Her debut album ‘Philharmonics’ was released last month. (source last.fm)

Philharmonics is a delicate, slow paced and tranquil  album that create a soothing listening experience; capturing the souls of the listeners. Captivated by her mellow and subtle voice with amazing piano tunes that lead the entire album. Her music is a bit cinematic and occasionally with mournful lyrics. Yet, fret not, it is not depressing at all. In fact, it is strangely beautiful. I guess “pensive” is the word to describe this album.
