Eivør & Sylvaine at Bluebird Theater – Denver, CO – February 12, 2025

Two very distinct artists come to Denver with the snow this Wednesday.

Faroe Island dark pop superstar Eivør is headlining with songs from her album ENN.

Often considered to be one of the most prolific and unique Nordic artists of her generation, Eivør has released 11 studio albums to date, crossing musical genres and always pushing the envelope of the expected. ENN ties back to Eivør’s Nordic roots. Most of the lyrics, sung entirely in Faroese, were penned in collaboration with the Faroese poet Marjun Syderbø Kjelnæs. The guttural penultimate track, “Upp Úr Øskuni,” is a thrilling outlier mixing growling beatboxing with visceral throat singing.

Sylvaine has grown into a guiding light for ambient post-metal, but her new EP traces back to her earliest roots. Kathrine Shepard grew up in Norway, on the outskirts of downtown Oslo. While studying music, dance and drama in high school, she performed several times at the Kampen Church.

This 19th century relic is where Kathrine recorded most of Eg Er Framand, which includes interpretations of traditional Norwegian folk songs, along with three of her own original songs to the cannon (Eg Er Framand, Arvestykker and Eg Veit I Himmelrik Ei Borg).
