Artist profiles

Polite and fresh-faced young troubadour of whom John Mayer once said, "Music like this is jet fuel on the fire of a broken heart". Born in the bleakness and solitude of The Faroe Islands, Teitur's lightly orchestrated musings on love and loss, suffering and sorrow echo the sounds of melting ice, haunted woods and stark honesty. He's a poet; he's a romantic; he's an Ingmar Bergman soundtrack; he's Al Stewart and Neil Hannon; and for those in to a less depressive Nick Drake or a Scandinavian Sinatra.
