Eyðun Nolsøe

I was born in Klaksvík, Faroe Islands, 200 years after the great legend and pioneer Nólsoyar Páll was born, and 100 years after our national hero in politics Jóannes Patursson was born.



Being child number 9 I had plenty of older siblings to spoil me. And of course they did.



Six years old I started out on the guitar and at age eleven I took violin lessons. My father played the violin and encouraged me to do the same. I gave it up after struggling for a couple of years.



I joined some bands in my teens and at age 17 I was playing guitar and singing in the folk/rock - protest band “Frændur”. We released five albums and had a blast.



I always felt connected with the music somehow, even though family had other expectations. So I spent years in school - dreaming of life without school.



I’ve really enjoyed making this album together with producer Hans Poulsen.
