Agnes Obel

Copenhagen-based singer/songwriter Agnes Obel is a musician whose 2010 debut album, Philharmonics, helped solidify her reputation as an uncompromising individual willing to pursue a unique artistic direction, even if it might not be the most lucrative of paths. She combines indie pop with soft rock, playing the piano as she sings in her ethereal and slightly seductive voice, to create a captivating original style. Obel is a class act and a rare find amongst the myriad of unapologetic musicians out there on the modern music scene who sing about crime and their lascivious lives.
