Biyografi

Konradsen are Eirik and Jenny and a bedroom in Oslo with synths and plants. Konradsen are also Erlend, and Ivar, and Øyvind and Big Bruce. And that guy who inspired you at a café in Copenhagen, and the mother who attends every show. And Sara, and Simen, and Tom, who once said that the music sounded like family love. And the music is also like a big family, with all those voices and sounds that have the need to have the last word. At the heart of it all: a gentle piano and an ambient voice that brings together all these people who are all part of Konradsen. Konradsen, the duo of vocalist and pianist Jenny Marie Sabel and multi-instrumentalist Eirik Vildgren, trace their roots to the far north of Norway. The pair met in high school, and later moved to Oslo to attend university. When they began writing their first album, it felt natural to include the many people that have nurtured and inspired them along the way. Most often revealed as textures in the broader composition, little flickers of voices from old home movies, or snippets of conversations with friends, are woven throughout Konradsen’s songs, providing a continuous sense of mystery and familiarity. Konradsen's music is a tender and homespun thread between past and present elevating our underlying interconnectedness through a journey in friendship and quiet reflection. Outside of the sampled voices, a host of friends also played instruments on the record, or contributed artwork, bringing the message full circle.
