In 2018 Agnes signed with Deutsche Grammophon and Blue Note Records in the United States. 2020 saw Obel release her fourth full-length studio album, Myopia, and once again, just like her previous album trilogy, was entirely self-written, recorded & produced by Obel herself in her home studio in Berlin.
Agnes Obel – Berlin-based, Danish-born; singer, songwriter, producer & classically trained pianist with an elegant and elastic voice. Obel's poised & melancholic chamber pop draws from the same atmosphere-heavy well as cinematic spellcasters, but with a succinct aura of Scandinavian refinery.
An evocative blend of alternative, neo-classical, pop, jazz & electronic production found mass success in Europe on the strength of the platinum-selling Philharmonics & Aventine. Both albums were written (with the exception of a John Cale cover), performed & produced by Obel herself. Pure, austere, and remarkably poised, the pristine mix of instrumentals, atmosphere, melancholy balladry and unique production was both a critical & commercial success.
Her ambitious 2016 release, Citizen of Glass, introduced ghostly electronics, voice modulation, and a late-'20s monophonic synthesizer called a Trautonium into the mix, helped to establish her on a world-wide basis as both a songwriter, artist and producer.
In 2018 Agnes signed with Deutsche Grammophon (and Blue Note Records in the United States). Later the same year Obel curated a Late Night Tales compilation, featuring original music and poetry.
2020 saw Obel release her fourth full-length studio album, Myopia, and once again, just like her previous album trilogy, was entirely self-written, recorded & produced by Obel herself in her home studio in Berlin. Extensive world touring followed across 18 countries throughout Europe, United Kingdom, United States, Australia & New Zealand.
Obel's music is a mainstay in the world of TV, cinema, gaming and fashion. Including usage in the likes of The Last of Us, True Detective, Big Little Lies and Dark Souls III. Riverside, Fuel to Fire, The Curse, September Song, It's Happening Again, Familiar... the list of tracks adored by fellow creatives goes on.
